Default Need my fly wheel surfaced/turned for new clutch install

Are there any shops in Brandon/Riverview area that will surface my stock fly-wheel for a new clutch install?

Thanks -

Guys I appreciate the information and Cody you dropped the name - thanks man. I wound up at Carquest in Brandon - since it is near by. I did not know those guys did machine work, they charge $25 for fly wheels, so we will see how they do. Actually, there is very light surface wear, but no need to short cut this one.

I found out the other day a buddy from high school is the machinest at Car Quest. Brian (Catfish) is a good dude and come highly recommended by a racer. Told me Brian has been doing his machine work for years and (stroker motors) no complaints

Yup, just picked it up nice swirl pattern. I really don't have any straight edges to judge the flatness tho. - I did not know they did machining work there.

Between $20 - $30 is the going rate in the area. I was using Marks Machine shop here in NPR,.. $20 with a 30 min wait. I have my own lathe now and do my own rotors and flywheels. $250 investment,.. if you do your own work it pays for itself over time.

Right on Hurst. I must have spent 150 over the past 2 days tooling up to change my rear seal and oil pan gasket. I'm in to fixin' my own stuff.
