Obviously the builder didn’t notice the vibration during the bench test stand.i installed it n my ‘35 w a rebuilt ‘39 tranny & over 1000 rpm the vibration was terrible. Long story short, it was the 10” clutch flywheel. It was n 11” flywheel redrilled as a 10”& was out of concentric .075”. I finally had an experienced Early Ford mechanic discover it. He installed a correct 10” flywheel in & it purred with no vibration!

I have drilled and tapped flywheels for different clutches. However, all of this was done utilizing precise coordinates.
To think as some do, they can simply "get it close enough" by marking the holes in a clutch plate is laughable.
