After my post this morning I put some time into the harmonic balancer development... Should have a prototype in 3 weeks.

Selling someone just a lightweight flywheel is kind of asking for issues with these engines, and we try to be problem solvers, nt creators.

Thanks for the compliments, it's great to be hanging out here and having interface with the Boxster drivers.

Wait till you guys see what we have in store for 2009, the Boxster engine has done a 180 degree barrel roll!!

Jake-

This is very interesting information. So, for those of with Aasco LWF's, you feel we have a higher probability of potential issues? I had always thought that the reduced mass of a LWF was a good thing?

Hypothetically, if one were to purchase an engine from you, with LWF, would you dynamically balance the whole rotational mass?

Also, I"m sending you a PM on an outside idea of mine
