Next we have the FB.

The nice 12A that's going into the FB is currently in PercentSevenC's '83 GSL. It is a very nice setup consisting of the 8 pound superlight flywheel, stock 215mm disc and a 215mm street strip pressure plate.

The pedal effort is perfect. Not to hard, not to soft. The stock style disc is plenty strong enough to handle whatever he's thrown at it. No slippage. Burnouts are possible even with an 8 pound flywheel. Acceleration in the lower gears is wonderful, but you can tell the engine lacks some torque in the higher gears compared to the 13Bs I'm used to.

Ok, now that's we've established that this setup works and works well, I wonder if it is going to be adequate with twice the torque from the 20B.

Hmm...
