Craft86MJ Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Would a performance lightweight flywheel (5-8lbs. lighter) help out a lot or a little on a 3.4L motor. Use as street/ DD. I know on my Grand Am it made a world of difference that a 4Cly. though. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 It depends on what you mean by "help out." A light flywheel will allow the engine to rev up a little faster, but it also makes it harder to drive without bucking and stalling. Given the weight of a Jeep, I doubt very much that you would find it an improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craft86MJ Posted September 21, 2010 Author Share Posted September 21, 2010 Help out in terms of performance, pro's, con's, worthy investment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dasbulliwagen Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I would only do a lightened flywheel if I was racing it, otherwise its not very beneficial in real world driving. Especially in a Jeep where you want to keep some low end torque, a lighter flywheel would ruin that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
