Less rotating mass is always good, but I also wonder if its worth the $150 or so for it.

it's the quest for efficiency, letting the engine not work as hard while not doing a thing to the engine. I think it's worth it personally.

I have one, and I can't tell if the car revs up faster, as it should with the less rotational mass the alum d/s provides, but I can tell you that there are less vibrations when the car is rolling. For that alone, it was worth it.

Definately worth it in my opinion. A great thing to do if you put gears in only because the stock POS vibrates like crap at high speeds, or if you drag race often or auto-cross. Less rotational mass makes it so much easier for our little 281's to rev.
