here are our 3 happy friends together
 as you can see here, PP is in good condition, no abuse (one small hot spot but it isnt raised) light scratches where the broken pieces were scraping.  flywheel is in very good condition too, those small back spots were on there when i got the clip and almost came out when i resurfaced it, also the flywheel was in good shape straight off the clip.  here are the 2 pieces of the disk up close, you can see where the rivots sheared off on the hub section.   going to call spec on monday, i definately dont want the same disk. it was a real pita to drop the trans in my garage |
