There is no resurfacing a flexplate (automatics have flexplates, sticks have flywheels).

The only way to check if it's bent is with a dial indicator (unless it's seriously bent). There is a tolerance there, but it's not much. I'm sorry but I don't know what it is off the top of my head.

What is it that is making you think the flexplate is bent? Symptom? Installation accident?

i took my motor out and didnt take the crank pully off, and i took the bar from my jack and tried to hold the flexplate while we broke the bolt loose, and it might have bent just a little bit
