That's because a lighter flywheel gives you back horsepower that is eaten up by the engine having to rev a heavier flywheel. Now, instead of losing 25% of your hosepower through your drivetrain like most cars do, you are only losing like 22%.

hey tellowman24.. wanted to ask you, did you need to discharge your air conditioner to take the engine out? because I would think you could un bolt the compressor and let it hang there... just wondering because I am planning a swap myself

we use shopkey, it has good info most of the time, but sometimes it sends you thru extra stuff thats not needed. good luck with your motor swap when you get your motor, gotta run now.
