Pressure plate / flywheel, Can they both be resurfaced? Options

[ammason]

So I'm swapping the clutch and have found that my pressure plate is toast and my flywheel has three broken teeth. I have another pressure plate and flywheel that have only spent about an hour on the road in a car from Santa Cruz, the only problem is that the hour was in 2003 and the car was totaled and left in the elements. The clutch disc rusted to the flywheel and pressure plate, pitting both of them nicely.

I was told that the flywheel can't be resurfaced because it's been resurfaced before, so I may have to spring for a new (to me) one, but the pressure plate is in great shape, save for the pitting on the friction surface. Do you guys know if pressure plates can be resurfaced? Anyone know a good shop in the bay area to do this and to check my other flywheel to see if I can get it turned down again?

Anyone got a good flywheel for cheap? I have a buncha parts to trade off the '72 incuding a complete non-running, leaf-covered 1.7L engine...

If both were new/reconditioned before they were installed, they could easily be glass bead or sand blasted and be useable. Just protect the seal surface and the mating surface on the back of the flywheel, and wash all the media out of them when you're done. Flywheels that have been turned once can still be turned again if the first cut wasn't extravagent. I would have that checked against a known good one. Many people grind the lip off the bolts to gain a little disc hub to bolt clearance. Not a bad idea, IMO. Be SURE to install a second flat washer under the release arm pivot ball stud. Use one of the stock ones from a tranny fastener, they're nice and flat. You can replace it with any old 8mm flat washer. The Cap'n
