After the 15% discount which I should qualify for, it would be about $150 before shipping and taxes.
I'm pretty sure my current flywheel cannot be turned down anymore. |

I wouldn't expect the flywheel to be "finish" forged to shape like a crankshaft or connecting rod.
I would expect it to be a disc of steel turned into a dinner plate then finish machined. If this is what is occurring, the dies would be very simple and probably used for other parts automotive or not. |
