I have been told billet steel is not available for my pull type setup (at least by APS & Centerforce).
APS DOES have an aluminum 'wheel that comes in at 20# at $479.

I weighed my current one at 36#. I am convinced some of that needs to come off. At the price, I think the aluminum one is the way to go.

I also think I will reuse my current disc as it has worn only .015" from new. And at $500ish for a new plate/ bearing, I will probably just re-use that as well.

Thanks for the suggestions!
