Topic: vangard flywheel

[car7]

I would like to put a lighter flywheel on a 20 hp vangaurd and was wondering if a flywheel off a say a older 16 hp would fit and would it be lighter, also would there be any starter issues.  I can't use an alum flywheel must be cast iron.

Yea the 16 will fit but ain't no lighter. If you can't use the cast iorn then ya stuck with what ya got..

You could go get the stock one magna-fluxed to make sure its not cracked anywhere. Then take it to a good machine shop have it lightnened and re-balanced. Then build yourself a GOOD scatter sheild. Make sure that the scatter sheild is on and of the quality before you run the engine with the lightened flywheel.
