I've not run across accounts of failures here in the last two years, but perhaps I missed them.

Can you notice the vibration when you are driving the car or is it a small enough vibration that it might be there but get drowned out with normal driving vibrations?

Changing to the DMD won't help you track it down unless that stock one is the problem and that appears unlikely, given that you "think its the clutch". If the problem isn't the crank pulley you may get rid of the vibration but you will have fixed the symptom and left the problem to possibly get worse. I'm not saying don't do that, just that remember you've still got a possible problem.

I had a suspicion that was part of the underlying reason. Honey, the cars not running right I'm going to have to do that 3L swap.
