Steel over aluminum flywheel on boosted app?

[Nosrettaw]

Been reading pros and cons online and I wanted some real mopar opinions not LS answers. I have an aluminum flywheel off an old engine, my new engine combo was built to have twin 72mm’s turbos. I still have the original A833 going back in. Going to be 98% street. Car is a tubbed 69 Dart Swinger with 31x18.5 Mickeys outback. Opinions.... steel or aluminum??

thanks

The light weight will definitly kill some low end torque .

On a boosted application, be it Mopar or whatever else, I would definitely use steel. Just one of those examples where “Steel is Real”, with no weird fatigue resistance or work hardening properties.

That's more of a road thing, and less of a strip thing.

Use the steel for the street. You will find you won't have to ride the clutch as much pulling out on hills.
