[TR] lightening flywheel

[Bob Danielson]

My understanding is that you should have the flywheel, clutch and pressure
plate balanced as a unit. That's what I was told to do last year when I
installed a new clutch and pp.

damn.  I had my flywheel lightened by 4 lbs. by local machinist.  good
machinist but It never occured to me to also balance it.  dumb newbie
slip-up.  What would be suggested now?  assume its unbalanced?  remove and
balance?  Or wait?  

I'm assuming it could be unbalanced enough to cause damage without being
"felt" in any way by driving it or by feeling the engine while its running.
