Hi David
Instead of machining an insert and screwing it to the Alum flywheel, the
alum flywheel is molten metal sprayed using a metal spraying technique
and then machined flat. The coating is about .010 " and the metal
becomes part of the flywheel. I did not see the process being done but I
am assured that it is a common practise and seems to have worked well on
my flywheel.

John: What do you mean by "metal sprayed"? I am not familiar with
this process.
