Aluminum or steel flywheel
I'm having a 460 CI FE built for my ERA with 428 block and steel heads. It will be a torquer and not a radical motor. The builder is suggesting an aluminum flywheel - but mostly because that is what everyone wants. This car is a street roadster recreation and will be strictly street driven by me. I'm questioning if I really need and aluminum flywheel for this and wouldn't be better off with a steel flywheel. What are most people using with a mild to medium build big block motor?
Thanks
Dan
