All I can say is "because I want to" and " other options worked on other cars for more than 100 years so why not on a model A?"
Is this a stock application with a stock flywheel weight, or something different? We know it’s worked for 90 years, and why change, right. But you didn’t describe what you’ve changed that requires the change.

What are you doing to necessitate the re-evaluation?
