the 2nd gen? Further, what is the consensus on the light weight

flywheels

available from the aftermarket shops? good weight savings, not

durable

enough? Thoughts?

  Thanks,

I think the 2nd gen started around 1986 and went to 1992.
Check with Tracy Crook to find out what aluminum flywheels if any
are compatible with his his gear box.

Ben and Paul,
 There are larger manual flywheels for some later models(same size

as the

auto flexplate) so lightened steel or aluminium flywheels are

available,

aftermarket.
Any of these should fit the bill.

But not all will fit Tracy's gear box.

Flywheels from 20B and 13B Cosmo don't fit Tracy's redrive, and you

can not

replace them with other 13B flywheels. I have tried.

Bulent,
What did you do to make it compatible, then? I would be interested in
seeing pictures....Tracy did tell me the 3rd gen flywheel does not fit
his redrive, either. Did you modify the one you had?
