NOW, I have increased the output of the motor considerably with the addition of a VNT turbo. I have also put in SD265 nozzles and adjusted the timing to 26*. With all of these mods, I now have 'bucking'. This can occur anywhere from idle to 2000rpm. This is low frequency say ~1Hz, and only occurs under light load. I have been contemplating adding weight to the flywheel, as it is becoming unbearable. I agree that the flywheel mass is definitely a factor and I will try adding ~20lbs when I can get a flywheel.

sorry about the hard to follow part.

how are you planning to add weight? Is it a matter of bolting on a ring to the 240D unit.

In the end, what is the availablity and cost of a factory 300D manual flywheel?

Yah, I knew someone would mention that someday, 20# would be interesting.
