Just get a lightened flywheel and be done with it.
There is no way to shave off 3 lbs off the stock flywheel that I am aware of...nor would I ever want to do it. And shaving 3 lbs, leaves about 30lbs of dead mass left.

True. Most of aftermarket light flywheels will make a chatter sound. Some likes it but some doesn't.

Sounds like you didn't really search about clutch/flywheel, please search before you make a purchase it.
