I'm lining up my ducks to do the T-10 trans rebuild on my '64 Gal sometime within the next couple weeks .....and am looking for a good shop that still does flywheel resurfacing in the twin cities area. I live in the west metro, so prefer 'this side of the river' --if I have choices that is, lol.

Thanks for any tips and help, in advance  :D    Norm

Most all of my machine work is done by Breeschoten Racing Engines in Cokato, Mn. Outside the city yes, but worth it I think. Phone Three 20- 286-5286. Ask for Harlan. He does the work for some fast race cars. R&R in Spring Lake Park is good also, I would guess they can resurface a flywheel. That would mean crossing the river though.

Hey thanks for all that info :)

Yea, the river comment just means I'm hoping to drop off and pick up over lunch hours, lol. Quality still reigns though, so Cokato might be the ticket. :D

Anyways, thanks again .....   Norm

I get the guys that want to keep it all Ford
and really understand the guys trying to save a buck.
But you should really look into a new steel wheel.
They are not that expensive and much, much safer than a used 50 year old cast wheel. jmo
