Default Derusting a flywheel.

What's up fellas? I need to do something with the original flywheel for my Z. It is completely rust covered, back, front, around the teeth, I think you all know this look but not pitted or flaking rust off or anything like that. I don't even think it has ever been resurfaced. If I take it in to have it resurfaced will the shop take car of that removal in the process or will it just be resurfaced and the rest is up to me?

Nope, the shop will make it look new if you ask them.

I was hoping someone would say that...now I just have to find a shop that does this locally...I can't believe that all the shops are pretty much gone in my area that use do the little things like rebuilding starters. Not much happening in Dover Delaware.

Evaporust, simply awesome stuff and enviromentaly friendly.
Bought 20 gallons of it to derust a 63 ZO6 block that looked like it had been used to anchor the Titanic, it was absolutely perfect after.

I have met Kerry some time ago but only once. I think he's about 45 minutes or so from me. I should give him a call...he does live in an area that has more going for it then where I do.

I thought about the evapo-rust but if It can be cleaned while it's getting a resurface I just may as well get the shop to take care of it.

Thanks guys...I really wasn't sure if it could be cleaned.

Gary, don't do or buy anything. Take it to a shop. Why buy stuff that you will only use once? call Kerry. he can help with your motor. he has a killer crossram 69 Z/28.
