Aluminum Flywheel or Billet Flywheel I just recently bought a t56 for an a4 to m6 conversion. I was wondering if an aluminum flywheel would be worth the extra money as compared to a billet steel. What are the benefits of the aluminum flywheel as opposed to a billet steel flywheel?
if your car is your everyday driver, i wouldnt go with the aluminum. The extremely light weight flywheel will make driving around town a pain in the ***. Billet is fine. The stockers are cast iron hunks of ****.

Yes Any LS1/6 clutch will work with any LS1/6 flywheel.
BTW I Daily Drive a Spec 3 and Hays Alum flywheel. It chatters now and again, but other than that I have no problems. I drive 18 miles each way to work, both highway and stop and go traffic.

I am going with an aluminum flywheel as well. It will be a drag car though. Ram twin disc comes with it. Small price to pay ($1199.99 
). The aluminum flywheel weight is offset by the added weight of the extra disc.
