My garage is filled with take-off parts from cars and motorcycles - just in case...but just in case never happens.

If you keep the old flywheel, you'll never need it. If you get rid of it, you'll find something that you need it for within a month, guaranteed.

Oh my goodness, how true is that. It is no wonder I am running out of room. But just think what a find this stuff will be in a swap meet 25 years from now.

one shouldn't resurface dual mass flywheels like u can with the single mass so I'd say chuck it...
