lightweight flywheel on automatic?

[kdillard21]

would it do any good to replace the flywheel on an automatic with a lightweight one? every engine has a flywheel so wouldnt it get rid of some rotating mass even still?

Why are you guys flaming him. I think it's a good idea. :D

Autos are completely different. Id probably get a better torque converter, but then again, i wouldnt be caught dead in an auto, unless its not mine.

dude, your flywheel weighs like less than a frisbee.(well almost) no need to, but a good question if it hadnt been asked many times before.

well if it doesnt have a flywheel, then what the heck does the starter engage to turn the engine over? smarty. i still think it would work. and i have never seen anyone ask that question. im the entrepreneur to this question the way i see it.

.the flexplate(flywheel) is already very thin b/c it doesnt have to hold the pressure of a clutch engaging on it .there for its already light and theres no need to lighten it .maybe you should learn somthing b.f you try and making me look like a dumbass when clearly the only dumbass i see is you.Thank you have a good day.....

[kdillard21]

see i like how people talk tough online, anyway, glad we got that straightened out, it is a flywheel, but a thin one called a "flexplate", that is all we had to get out in the open, im not an automatic genious here. just trying to learn myself somthing. thanks for the info

ps...your cool bryant (FAG!)

I simply told you to search b/f asking a question. then you had to get smart.Check out howstuffworks.com they can explain an A/T for you.But thats all i got to say you found out what you needed to know, end of story.
