Flywheel thinkin

[twinstaged]

Anyone cut into a stock aluminum flywheel and see how the center hub is cast in place dimension wise. Specifically a 660 flywheel. I have a pretty good idea from looking, but more of the hub could be hiding under the surface. I guess I could sacrifice one to get the knowledge unless there is some "been there done" that from someone here? Thanks

Where are you goin with this?

Two piece flywheel with pinned locations for timing degrees as a test tool or just run it. Just a random thought at the bench today.

That would be an awesome tool for different coils swaps too.

When you get one made I'll gladly test it for ya.

I'll add it to my list of never ending tools lol. Need to stumble across some extra flywheels. I could cut up some Chinese ones for a prototype.

Seems like you could do that with two flywheels and an old crank end to chuck up in the lathe.

Yeah that was the plan. I'd probably make a mandrel with the same taper so I could run it between centers.
