Should I get this flywheel and pressure plate resurfaced?
Is this spotting normal? My bellhousing was VERY dirty and I'm guessing these spots were from burned off oil. The clutch was holding fine before I took it off. This is a FM flywheel and an ACT extreme pp and extreme organic disc (with 30K of wear).
Should I get this resurfaced?
Here's the pressure plate.
The disc looked just fine. Looks like very little wear for 30k miles and piles of launches.

I would resurface it. Some of that kind of marking is normal, but that much is abnormal.
If you decide not to resurface it, at the very least scuff it by hand with some fine grit paper in small circular motions. But I say resurface.
Edit:Remembered it was an aluminum flywheel. If you remove the friction face from the flywheel, the machine shop can put it on their giant belt sander for a second and freshen/true it right up easy. PP also.

Fyi for anyone else who needs a new surface for their old purple fm flywheel, you can get one from fidanza but you need to count up the number of plate bolts firt.
