      Removing the ring off the backside of the flywheel should get the flywheel weight  from 18.5 lbs to roughly 14 lbs. Its a nice way to help your acceleration a bit since the rule of thumb is that removing dynamic mass has about the same impact on performance as removing 2-3 times the static mass. So it would be like removing 10-15 lbs from the car. 

      But nevermind the flywheel lightening, because from the looks of it, your car is trying to lighten..... itself.

        LOL. "Had a real NICE day today." Is what it was supposed to be. I just hope it doesn't cost too much. I always wanted a lightened flywheel anyways. And maybe he can get me some dowel pins.... We whipped out the heat gun last night and got high off all the tar. Wait.. I mean we removed the tar. It sucked. But the car is getting lighter and lighter every day. Real fun.

          How long did it take to get the trunk tar out? I got lucky. I peeled all mine up by hand in large chunks in about 5 minutes.

            Took like 10 minutes with a big chisel haha. The tar under the rear seats and in front of the drivers and passenger seats is what took the longest. Just have to get it good and hot.

                    Dude pick n save definitely doesn't have any! And holiday doesn't either. I looked at both when i was a kid trying to make dry ice bombs.

                          Honestly mitch, if you came in while I was working at a store, and you asked for 5lbs of dry ice, I'd probably tell you no we don't sell it either. You need a hair cut.

                            Lol. I don't think you can cut my hair shorter than it is without buzzing it, and personally, I think I look pretty well presentable :)
