? about flwheel material
? about flwheel material ok, i know a guy who can can make me a Ti flywheel, would there be any advantages for this? Is this even worth trying? Are the properties of Ti good for this kind of application?
Interesting it would be a light weight FW.
But the aluminum ones use a steel friction surface. I dont know how titanium would hold up.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanium read up i guess? lol

Bad idea for two reasons. First, Ti has terrible wear properties and wouldn't work without some kind of surface treatment. Most likely that would be a steel face plate as most clutches are designed to wear against steel. Anything else and you'd have to develop a new mating wear material (expensive). Second, Al is cheaper and lighter than Ti. They already make those and they work well.
