I have one of each right now............both 65 Mustangs, the race car weighs 2777, close ratio toploader,3.70 rear gear, 15lb. alum. flywheel, 331 stroker............the other is a street Fastback, 3060 lb., 351-W,Tremec five speed, 3.25 ear gear 30lb. steel flywheel............

Final gear drive in the race car is 8.5 in 1st gear, street car is 10.6......so there is big difference...........street car will take off from an 800rpm idle with no problems like it should, the race car needs a little more help feathering the throttle, but it's no big deal...........

It's hard for me to tell the difference in the flywheels when accelerating cause the street car has 350 hp and the race car has 472hp...kinda like apples and oranges, but in a lightweight Cobra, an aluminum flywheel should not be a problem...........

BTW; I'm running a Hays flywheel, I don't have any real preference in brands, I got this one for a steal from a guy that had it sitting in his shop for 2 years after he sold his "project car".........it was still new in the box and I paid 50cents on the dollar for it.........
