DOORGUY,

I think flywheel weight is a personal preference thing in these cars. With these light cars you certainly don't need the mass of the steel flywheel, but if you prefer the performance characteristics of the steel, then that's the way you should go. I personnally prefer the light flywheels.
As far as whether to spend the money on the Lakewood bell housing, well I always remember the Bell helmet advertisement from the 60's....."If you've got a $10 head, buy a $10 helmet". While I would agree that clutch explosions are rare, I experienced one many years ago and I feel very lucky that I still have my feet. An exploding clutch assembly makes a steel floorboard look like it was made of crepe paper.

Just sayin
