Default clutch chatter problem Diaphram PP info

I have a 1940 ford four door I recently purchased. The motor has been rebuilt and trans rebuilt with new clutch and (long style) PP. Builder states he installed a lighter 51 flywheel but would not answer if he had it resurfaced before install. I have worked through all of Van Pelt's list of possible issues, finding the radius rods unhooked, clutch external linkage worn out, Motor mounts loose. fixing all that and I still have chatter. Cannot discern any crank end play either. I am about to take the clutch apart, and would like to go to a diaphragm PP. Since I will be hiring this work done I would like to have parts in hand before we start disassembly. Can anyone provide diaphragm PP , throw out bearing and flywheel combo information that will work for me? Of course I could resurface existing flywheel Also is there a geometry problem for the linkage doing this?
Overall and specific advice will be greatly appreciated. Tom in Erie Pa
