Yeah, the stock T-56 flywheel is a heavy ****. I considered weighing everything, but i was too focused on just making the switch. Good info!

The stock flywheel really isn't that heavy. It's only 23lbs. The pressure plate with my clutch (Diamond Clutch) is 2-3lbs heavier than stock & Monster appears to be the same way. Hence the reason for using a lightweight flywheel. It makes up for a heavier pressure plate and then some.
Any one of the Diamond Clutch complete kits (Stage 1, 2, or 3) comes out to 43lbs total.
If you were to use a stock flywheel or a heavier billet flywheel, it would be heavier than stock.
