"I found with the lightened stock flywheel that it was harder to take off from a standstill, especially uphill & I couldn't keep the car in 5th gear as much as I would have liked...."

This may sound argumentative, but although I understand the first problem, I certainly do not understand the second. At highway speeds in OD, a lightened flywheel should be of very little consequence... virtually undetectable via seat of the pants, IMO.
