Default Resurfacing stock flywheel

When my clutch goes in, I'm going to resurface my stock flywheel. Right now I know of one place that does it, and that's NAPA. Someone that was in the biz of building race cars told me NOT to goto napa. What do you guys think?

If your going to use a stock clutch setup it comes with a new flywheel. :smash:

Resurfacing is a simple process for any machine shop. I can't see why NAPA couldn't do it.

Don't waste you time and effort....replace the flywheel to include the flywheel mounting bolts and pilot bearing.

Note: resurfacing will do nothing for a flywheel that has been subject to high heat or hot spots.
