360 engine vibration at ~3000rpm
Guys, Al good feedback and ideas. Here are some answers:
1) Harmonic balancer looks just like pictures of the factory installed type. Has an offset weight.
2) Flex plate is one with a bite taken out of it (B&M #10236)
3) Torque Converter is neutral balance (B&M #10515) w 2400 rpm stall.
4) Driveshaft is an oversize steel unit by "Republic Diesel" in Louisville. I removed it & took to them after I purchased the car. They checked balance and confirmed proper length.
5) Motor mounts look like standard factory style and rubber looks O.K.
6) I have no details about the short block, pistons, etc...
7) Will continue to check for any contact points around exhaust/headers as they are pretty close in a few places(especially on drivers side.)
