No this is wrong. Perfectly possible. In fact I wrote an article for miniworld on this very thing.

Depends what you were ordering.... you can put a lightened flywheel on the engine, but needs to be the right one...
The whole clutch assembly consists of a spring, back plate, friction plate and flywheel... so if you're using a verto clutch system, you need a lightened flywheel for a verto clutch, if you're using a diaphragm clutch then you need a lightened flywheel for a diaphragm clutch. The two are totally different.
