I have an aluminum flywheel that doesn't have a steel face installed on it yet. If you want to take on that project, I'll let it go cheap. I'll snap some photos and post it up later.

I ran this flywheel in my first TR8 many years ago. It used a custom asbestos clutch disc up against the aluminum face with no steel insert. Worked well, but then I could no longer get solid asbestos anything. Clutch materials now have little specs of brass in them that would machine away the metal if you tried using the flywheel without the insert. I had the face cleaned up and I stored it in a box in the basement over 20 years ago. The face measures 18mm thick, total thickness is about 27mm. Width where ring gear presses on is 12.25", width including ring gear is 13.125". Center hole is about 34mm.
