My c16xe has a group a head an inlet manifold and ss 4-2-1 exhaust manifold. Any help would be appreciated thanks.

Yes you could have it lightened and it'll be fine, I'd get some ARP flywheel bolts for it as well.

The car itself is fast road use and having a giggle down at pod will that make a difference??

Yes but you can't take that much weight off a standard flywheel for it to make a hugely significant difference. Best saving up for a proper billet steel flywheel :thumb:
