Ive read and heard lots of good news about the F1 flywheels. Stay away from the aluminum ones unless you really need to be that light. It's not worth the risk of over heat if ya don't need to. A lighter flywheel means better throttle response less rotating mass and the "feeling" of a bit more power. I just ordered mine a few days ago and can't wait to get it in. Its advised to have the clutch "kit" spin balance as a whole. Most of the balance sheets I've seen are very good out of the box however. Usually within .5g which is within the tolerance range.
Don't forget to do the rear main, trans input, pump, tail shaft seals and cps O-ring while your in there.

FWIW. Strongly suggest adjusting clutch pedal first.
Personally, I'd not be putting cheapo, known-questionable goods (F1) in a spot that's hard to get to.

I put a F1 flywheel with the FM clutch on my 92. There were no problems putting it on except when the slave cylinder practicly exploded due to the extra force required to disengage / engage the clutch. I just picked up a replacement at auto zone for $15 and all is well. I didn't even have to adjust the pedal from stock.
