Should I replace this flywheel?

Clutch went out and the springs got up in there and roughed it a bit...the surface doesn't seem too bad could be machined out...

Heres a picture

Do you enjoy having feet?

Next time you're up under your car, observe how close that flywheel, spinning at ???? RPM (crankshaft speed), is, to your right foot. It's actually no more than 4", maybe as little as 3".

I like walking sometimes.... if my own looked like that, it'd go in the trash.

I think you need to install a scatter shield when you re-assemble.

This is a really good point that didn't cross my mind. Thanks I'll be getting a new one.
