The benifits are longer clutch life, since the surface is worn with the old clutch.

Just take it to a tranny shop, should only be about $30.

Or a local place that resurfaces brake rotors should also be able to do it. A friend had his resurfaced at Midas and they actually did a very nice job.

Agreed. Worthwhile to do if you're interested in long-term reliability of the clutch. Cheap to do, too.

I have my motor apart and putting in a new clutch so I am going to have my flywheel resurfaced. If you have it all apart there is not reason not to resurface it.
