Thanks Schmoo
BTW... I told them not to shave too much off when they lightened it. If it's too light to be safe for a d15b vtec, what would that weight be? I know you roll with the B-series crowd :hsd: but Weight would deem it unsafe?
It was like 22lbs. when I took it in. I told them to call me when it was going to be done, because the guy who does it wasn't there, but they didn't and made it pretty skinny :hs:. It's all good, $25 to learn a lesson is ok. I have a spare flywheel anyway. I can take the other one in, and have them do it right if it's too light.
