On my last trip to MED I was offered a Lightweight pre verto flywheel that isn't on the market yet, and as it was the very first one to be made, he offered it to me for a very good price, and said he could skim 15 thou off the lugs to give it more clamping pressure, and my turbo clutch should should be fine, and if not, Min-its do a uprated turbo clutch kit that would bolt straight on and that would definately be fine.

If it looks a good buy at a good price, then why not? I would:) On 7th Oct, 2010 5haneJ said:

Did seem like a good price, £50 less than they will be when they come up for sale. The reason he will nock that off is because it needs finnishing off, like the little burs from machining need filing off, other than that he said its a great flywheel! Looks like thats my mind made up lol, I just he hasn't sold it since last monday :) On 25th Sep, 2009 mini13 said:

Why aren't they just finishing it off and selling it for full price? They will have to finish every other one off before they sell them, so why not this one? |

Are we talking about the new MED Lighweight Verto flywheel as the post heading or a new pre-verto as your first post? Saul Bellow - "A great deal of intelligence can be invested in ignorance when the need for illusion is deep."

sorry, its verto, I've no idea why i put pre verto. The main reason he will sell it for that price is that I've had quite a few bits off him, and I usually pop down at lunchtime when I'm at college with a friend who also has lots off him. He did say its perfectly fine, but as said above, I'll definately check a few dims before i part with my hard earned! On 25th Sep, 2009 mini13 said:
