i got my flywheel resurfaced at my uncles shop, it had so many hot spots on it and even after i resurfaced it the hotspots were there so he took it to some dude to get them off.
Killercanary said:Sorry to bring this back up, but I just had mine resurfaced and I just now realized I didn't get a spacer for between the crank and the flywheel as I have before. I just plain forgot about it, and the last place that did it for me provided one with the resurfacing. Did you gusy go without it, or did you all put one in. If no-one else is running it, I'm going to forget about it. Please let me know ASAP.
Killercanary said:The spacer is something you buy AFTER you have had it resurfaced. What it does is move the flywheel and therefore the pressure plate back towards the T-out bearing to ensure that you get proper disengagement of the clutch. Basically without it, you could theoretically end up with less air gap if you don't have enough travel of the clutch fork... BUT then again we're only talking a few thousandths here too, so I don't know if its a must have or not...
HISSIN50 said:sorry to be :OT: but it is related. once, a machine shop guy said that to do a resurface correctly, one needs to use a Blanchard grinder (something like that). does this sound right?- ive seldom (ok, never) heard of anyone having it done with one, but wondered if it was better (i dont know what a Blanchard grinder does).
