I just had the flywheel changed on my 74 2.0L 914. Mechanic said the old flywheel was a "lightened" one and my new one is stock. I'm curious about you all's opinions on the difference; pros and cons of each. Apparently the PO decided to go for more high end acceleration than low end? I've never seen anything about this on the forum.
