Hi,

I have an original F & S 1972 pressure plate which is all aluminum. 
After 1973 Porsche started to make everything more cheaply and things 
like this pressure plate disapeared. They are no longer available.

The contact area is thick aluminum with a thin steel (iron?) coating
which has worn and cracked a bit.

Does anyone know of a source for re-coating the contact area with steel?
I think it is called metal spraying? If they could do it in 1972 I would think
it could be done better today.
