philbey Posted April 27, 2012 Report Posted April 27, 2012 Yes, correct on both counts. the actual extra clamp force probably isn't that impressive beacause the moment arm is so small. if I didn't have homework I would have calculated it *procrastinating* After all the effort that goes into reducing rotating mass, well this genius idea just offset all the weight you shaved off your flywheel. and the fact that these things slide, as well as that retainer ring, it's all a nasty setup to balance.

Trev Posted April 28, 2012 Report Posted April 28, 2012 What a waste of time, why would you induce clutch slip in a 4k to get better performance. Quote
tobymmm Posted April 30, 2012 Report Posted April 30, 2012 wouldn't have anything todo with 4k's being in a forklift? same setup as small motobikes? Quote
Hiro Protagonist Posted April 30, 2012 Report Posted April 30, 2012 wouldn't have anything todo with 4k's being in a forklift? same setup as small motobikes? I doubt HKS would do a performance part for a forklift.... And forklifts tend to run torque-converters and/or hydrostatic drives anyway so a clutch isn't required. Quote
kickn5k Posted April 30, 2012 Report Posted April 30, 2012 So who bought this??? I was going to, but after comparing the flywheels off my 5k and the spare 4k one I had lying around, I found they weren't the same. Seeing as I want to use the 5k flywheel and couldn't guarantee it would fit I bypassed it. That now proves my theory of my import 5k having a t series behind it in the past. Quote
