I have never known anyone bother balancing a flywheel after changing a ring gear. As in effect the ring gear itself is inherently in balance anyway, and so should not affect the flywheel.

Note that to fit a new one you do need to heat it in an oven to expand it so it then shrinks onto the flywheel, not weld on as you mentioned.


I had to get my one re balanced, when i first ran it after the new gear it was dog rough at higher rpm.

I got the details off you for Chesmans Motorsport in Coventry, 25quid later and my engine is fantastic right upto about 7000rpm!

I dare not push it much higher *surprised*

Forgotten more than most ever know

Factory flywheels have only interference fit ringears. Most light weight or UL steel flywheels have ringears fitted with BOTH interference fit AND tig welding.

I forgot to mention it was an ultra light flywheel, thats why its got the welds on it.

If i made a new gear up for the inertia type starter, that should solve any problems with the gears not meshing properly shouldn' it?
