If you have an outfit near you that resurfaces flywheels I'd suggest you consider it...especially if you'll be removing it anyhow. The place I use always checks the runout and will let me know if they see cracks or anything else that would cause alarm. They also will check the balance, so when I get it back I have essentially a new one. The difference is often notable...especially the lack of any chatter, etc. I think the last time I had it done they charged me $45 or $50. There used to be a place that would remove your starter gear and turn it over in the service but they closed around 2000. Doing that will make it very close to new again.
