I have decided to go with a Ram VDS system with a 910 disk. I was wondering if I should go for the Aluminum Flywheel upgrade at the same time. My car is set up for drag racing and the stock clutch is gone. I run Mickey Thompson ET Drags and just want to make sure that when I do the clutch install I install all the best parts offered at the time. I hate pulling apart and rebuilding. Jessie

Jessie,
For drag racing, I would stick with a steel flywheel. The aluminum flywheel will hurt 60' time and cause the engine to bog down when letting the clutch out,unless you are leaving with the engine RPM above 7k. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />
The aluminum flywheel is mainly used in road racing for corner acceleration.
