Personally, I like Aluminum especially with the low weight of a Cobra. In my mind, there is no advantage having a heavy flywheel. Cobras want to break the tires loose anyway. The lighter flywheel will be softer coming out of the hole, wont shock the tires as hard and it will spin up faster.
If it was a 69 Torino with a small block on slicks, then hell yea. All that stored energy (40lbs wheel at 5k) can get a big tub moving, provided you can hook it up.
What is the cost difference?
