The clutch and 180mm o-ring flywheel in my 66 1300 SP are worn and in need of replacing. The car is a clean weekend driver that has been converted to 12V except for the flywheel and starter which are still 6V. Could anyone please provide the pro's and con's of going to a lighter 12V 200mm flywheel. I was considering the one in JC Whitney (DBE481257) which is 50% off or $69.99 with free shipping on orders of $99 or more. As for the pressure plate and clutch disc, I'm open to suggestions since they have several options and I truly have no idea which is the best. My future plans include a vintage dual carb setup and matched dizzy.

Thanks in advance... Eddie (813) 624-4713
