12a vibration

I run the lightest flywheel for a 12a in my 80 SA stockport. Its an 82 I think only weighs 23# versus 30# for the stock. I get some very minor vibrations from it but nothing too bothersome. Its been on there the last 4 or 5 years no problems.

I also talked to some folks that race 12as and this is a pretty common mod to do and still stay legal for the flywheel in some classes.

If the vibration IS present when the vehicle is static and clutch is engaged then remove the gearbox and check your flywheel,counterweight and pressure plate. If nothing obvious doublecheck the counterweight is indeed a 12A counterweight.
