Stiffy, by 'standard' do you mean standard 5.7L Holden dunnydoor clutch or standard 7.0L Corvette clutch? Both factory standard but I would suggest leagues apart.
Some advice I received on lightened flywheels... with the comparatively light reciprocating mass of these LS engines (ability to accel/decel fast), combined with low weight of the Cobra particularly over the back wheels, a heavier (stock) flywheel will help smooth out changes in driveline inertia, providing more traction into and out of corners. On the other hand a lightened flywheel will lose more engine speed during gear changes and engine braking so the rear is more likely to lock up under brakes. Under heavy acceleration a lightened flywheel allows engine speed to build more rapidly, increasing likelihood of wheel spin (not a bad thing at the Kmart carpark).
Food for thought or just plain confusing/wrong? Hope I've explained it properly.
