Default 2WD Cosworth flywheel

A machine shop has just totalled my Flywheel
If anyone has any idears or a spare one I could have machined I need to move my car real soon

Is there anyone out there that could machine a new one up for me with My PCD in it .

Sounds like a good machine shop!!
I have a 2wd cossie flywheel in good order despite 200,000K miles, ideally needs a skim, but certainly not bad by any means, just a bit blue, and you can have the friction plate free, all the springs rattle like f**k!!
Pm me if interested, I had another skimmed lightened and balanced for £30 by my machine shop so this is surplus now, nb it went from 8.9KG to 6.6KG in case you're interested, how did they wreck yours, trying to slot it by any chance they don't like this!!

Thank you for your offer That would be great if I can get it off you.
I had to get the Crank PCD swapped for a 2.3 Crank and they drilled it from the wrong side, so the PCD is off I could not believe they did it and when I told them they didn't get what I was saying at all . I had to show them with a Ford Mustang flywheel what I ment Thanks Paul W. Ps where are you in the world .

I'm in Norfolk, uk, carrot cruncher killer farmer territory!!
I only just seen the addy for your local, but no probs for me, think I must just have seen the wales bit!!
As jon says though cost wise would be much better in your situation/location.
Not trying to put you off have sent stuff there before, and loads to iceland regularly so not a prob if you still want, just pm me.

NO Jon IF YOU WELD the flywheel will work harden like you woulden't Believe and It would cost silly money to have it re-drilled with an electric erosion bit / tool .
