What on earth would make anyone with a brain stick their finger on a flywheel to stop a engine? Hell pinch the damn line the 2 seconds it runs lean don't hurt crap and at least you'll have all your fingers left....same people stuffing fingers into flywheels are the same tards who stop metal bladed fans with their tongues....I'd love to see one of them stop my monster buggy with their finger, matter a fact I'd pay to see it and provide a nice cooler full of ice for their severed finger and a free trip to the hospital to get the stump sewed up
Anyone saying stick your finger in a flywheel is a idiot plain and simple and their advice shouldn't be followed.
Nice generalization.... You'll never stop any of my BBs like that but smallblocks absolutely could be without any danger. I keep a tiny tuning screwdriver on me when I run and use the plastic end to stop the flywheel. Although I do this with big and small blocks, I have stopped most of my smallblocks at one point or another with a finger and no incidence (ie no pain or even a mark).
Nobody here told anyone to stop a big-block (or your "monster buggy engine"); this is a ST forum and a ST thread. These trucks for the most part ALL come with/run small blocks.
Perhaps I am an idiot, but I know that the word 'an' must precede idiot, not an 'A'.
