As far as flywheel weight, a heavier flywheel can make offroad
driving a little easier with an engine that doesn't stall at easily
while you are slipping the clutch on hills, it's the inertia that keeps
engine from stalling as easy.

I did consider fitting a Samurai flywheel to get a bit more acceleration but thats exactly why I didn't.

Ok... so the verdict is, I can fit any flywheel from the 1.3/1.6 8v to the 1.6 16v. Correct? Will the clutch still work on the 16V or will I need a spacer?

What about the G13B 1.3 SOHV 16V flywheel? Is it the same as the 8v engine?

Thanks,

I have a spare 8v clutch and flywheel out of my 1990 geo tracker. The flywheel on the tracker is much thicker and heavier than the one on the samurai. I also can let out the clutch at idle in first gear, and it wont stall as easy as most cars due to the low first gear and heavy flywheel
Runnin' it stock with 225/75R15s and an unmodified 8valve TBI motor (I need a doug thoroley header and a cam) (more power) (1.6 liters of madness) (vroom + sewing machine sounds)
