I have a used shortblock with a steel crank and a JW flexplate. Previous owner / builder installed the flexplate without relieving the ID bore inner edge to clear the crank fillet. This "tweaked" the wheel slightly... looks ever so slightly like a dinner plate now. But apparently this did not cause a problem for the previous owner.... (as far as I know)
Anyways.. what's the preferred procedure for beveling the ID edge of the wheel? Grind it by hand or take it to a shop and put it on a lathe? I'd like to find out if this wheel will straighten itself out if I bolt it back up after clearancing
