Flywheel

Post by jaybee47 » Wed Apr 29, 2020 9:55 pm

I am asking what is the weight of a T flywheel with and without its components?
I was asked this question, but, I don't know, unless I pull it out of my extra engine, which I don't want to do because it has already been restored.
Thanks for all answers and comments.

When I used to sell more parts, I weighed about every part to provide shipping costs, by weight.

52 is right on for the flywheel weight.
