BTW.. this is the same kit on 8 psi.. sae corrected / smothing 3 .. just because i caught some flak for that .. and the same 12 psi run as up top .. but sae corrected... btw that is 288 foot-lbs torque at 3700 rpm... no clutch slip down there.. the reason for the down low bump is that the set boost was acting up....KA's are cool

i only said to set the correction and smoothing in order to make his graph on the same scale as everyone else pretty much uses. that way we would get a better idea and make sure theres no graph discrepences

Until then you have a "spoongy" sufrace which does not have as much surface area as a broken in flywheel with a flat surface. This type of resurface gives you about the best break in when it breaks in. Until then, like I said, less surface area will promote slip under good power.

Maybe you need to resurface your flywheel differnetly then. The grain is not fine enough on the surface, reminds me of a cylinder wall - how come brand new flywheels arent' like that then, if that's the best way to do it?

Good point... but here is the reason.. I have 3 grain stones to choose from when sending out a flywheel for resurface. This is the 2nd finest and it costs our customer $80... Brand new flywheels ... lets say a billet piece aftermarket.. are turned on a cc lathe... giving it a almost perfectly flat surface when it is made. I can have a flywheel turned on a number 1 stone .. but it becomes 10 passes on the lathe (3 on number 2 and 7 on number 1).. almost triples the cost.. $250 to customer. The 7 extra passes on the finest stone will give you a mirror finish and almost make it like new... Cost was an issue in this customers case. Anyways.. I'm sure you guys sell a billet ka flywheel for $350-$400.. which would make option 2 kind of pointless.. Hope that clarifies.
