Zacctly, any motor will "wind up" a little quicker with a lighter flywheel, be it steel or aluminum......I doubt the average guy could really tell the difference, probably looking a a few tenth's of a second.........Unless your all out racing, there is no need for the extra expense of an aluminum flywheel....IMHO of course......
And I have 2 Mustangs with one flywheel of each,I driven both quite a bit........
BTW: there are steel flywheels out there that are almost down to the aluminum weight for about 60% of the price of an aluminum wheel.......
