Wont be going back there... though they do need to make a living. Nice work on the starter, addapter plate, and fly wheel. Only problem is that they placed on of the bolt holes part way into the balance pit on the back side. So not only does that throw off the balance, but the bolt head now has symmetrical purchase.. So I will probably take it back for new holes, but will also need to get the fly wheel re-balanced... which is only done a long way away from here.... I wonder how much balancing costs...???
