Ok so I was messing with my Old 7AFE engine today and everything trying to take the thing apart and learn as much as I can about engines and what not. Well, I got the clutch out and when I did the removal of the Flywheel. I happen to have my fingers on the bottom of the flywheel and when I wiggled it off it fell on my index finger! OUCH ! I can still feel the pain even tho im typing this message with my middle finger instead.

Dam, tat flywheel is so freakin heavy. It just creamed my index finger. Luckly no broken fingers, but heavily bruised finger. Ouch and I was gonna go pull some paddlefish this weekend too!

I can see why so much power is lost in the flywheels now. Its so freakin heavy that power is wasted to turn the thing. The Aluminimum are like only 10 lbs. Well, this stock fly is like 30++++ lbs~!

Lesson learned well....not really but, Never have any of your body parts under something that your gonna let loose from the car tongue.gif !

I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.
