Alluminum is lighter but more prone to distort from heat. I personally
would go with steel. I also have a public High school math background. 14 years machining experience. I can hardly believe that someone even makes a flywheel out of alluminum. Seems like it would load up on the clutch face. Am I missing something here? It would be like making a brake rotor out of alluminum. I don't get it sorry.
