Assuming you have used enough depleted uranium to balance the CRANK ASSEMBLY completely, the flywheel/clutch and damper weight has nothing to do with crank balance.

A heavy total weight, crank assembly limits the performance of any car not only by total weight added to the car but MOSTLY because of poor spool up.
This is usualy of little concern in a vintage street machine though.
