86 tecate flywheel help

[danimal95]

so i thought that i blew the motor this weekend in my 86 T3,but as it turns out,the bolts that retain the lighting coil came loose and it locked up against the flywheel......now here is the delema,some of the magnets are damaged with small pieces missing some are ok,do i have to replace the flywheel or will it still work ok?if i need to replace it what flywheel should i replace it withg that has fixed magnets,not glued on

[T3 LOPES]

i would think it needs to be replaced but i didnt see it. ricky flywheels work great and will last forever. you can also get the coils from him as well just red lock tite them and you should be in good shape.

And from what i have learned is all of the magnet don't need to be there to work properly.
Like T-3 Lopes said, maybe a picture might be in order.
If you would like it refurbished I can do that. Just a couple of advantages of a refurbished one over a ricky is
- cheaper then buying one.
These magnets will NOT be affected by water/moisture since it can not get to the glued portion of the magnets.
These magnets will NOT move, unlike rickys witch you can NOT see move (and they will over time) because of the tin wrap they put on the inside of their fly wheels.
I was just talking with Lopes about the marketing of these this morning so i apologize for hijacking your thread in a sales fashion but I got to start somewhere I reckon.
Let me know if i can be of help Dan.

what kind of money are we looking at?also what is the turn-around?money is alittle tight right now so the cheaper option would work for me....i just had to put 6 injectors in my 03 dodge cummins to the tune of $2800:(

i figured that,noyt sure ewhy they came loose it was a R/S stator to begin with,i may call him and see what he says,mabey he will warranty it......fyi we are planning a silver lake trip in september,mabey we can meet up again

si i just called R/S and they are going to replace the stator and flywheel for me:Bounce this is the first time a company has actually stood behind their product
