you mean rotational inertia?

because on a 3800lb car you'd have to save a hundred pounds to even notice a difference.

We're still talking about the pulley not the flywheel right?

Underdriving can free up a few hp, but LW pulleys do nothing significant.

Lightweight flyweels are a VERY bad idea and can cause MAJOR problems with you car. Avoid them!
