Just curious, but is there any benefit from having a perfectly balanced flywheel and clutch.With saw turning at 10,000 plus rpm, there would be viberation from unbalanced parts. This could be unpleasent on the hands and possibly over a long period of time cause unnecessary damage to the saw. I know with hot rodding/blueprinting car engines a lot of attention is paid to this. What are your thoughts?

Flywheels are already balanced. As for the clutch, I figure the chain messes up pretty much anything you can do on that side!
