If I understand you correctly, yes a flywheel that has been machined can require a shim to allow proper disengagement.

Do you have any idea how much material was removed from the flywheel? Anything more than .015" can thin things out so much that clutch release is affected. The starting thickness for the flywheel is .810" so you can check your flywheel thickness against this number to see if that is the potential cause.
