Thank everyone, I appreciate the compliments.

F'in mine-
No offense taken. I welcome any ideas to help troubleshoot.
I have a 2 pc rear main.
I installed a brand new externally balanced harmonic balancer the end of last year while troubleshooting. No change in vibration.
I verified the motor mounts are correct a few months ago.
The engine came with a flexplate and I installed a new flywheel. Both external balance. I think the flywheel/clutch could be the culprit.
The thow-out bearing came with the McCleod clutch and it's spec'd for my combo.
Clutch pedal/adjustment was verified when I installed the new trans.
Reciprocating assembly needs to be re-balanced- I think this is it. I think the original rotating assembly was balanced with the flexplate and the new flywheel/clutch is not quite balanced to match. I plan to pull the engine in the winter and have a shop install a new, internally balanced, rotating assembly.
Thanks for the run-on tips and the compliment!

Daniel
