I had a horrible harmonic vibration on the way home Saturday from Fort Worth, and it seems it was flat spot related.

I have a 4 hour drive in TOW tomorrow, so I'll see if the vibrations are gone. I have always had some kind of vibration around 2200-2400 RPM, with both the previous and new engine. That one I can't figure out, but it feels engine related.

See you Saturday!
You know it was such a difference Im now rethinking my strategy of investing in a really nice(expensive) set of wheels and going with 2 lesser sets just so I can keep some street tires around. When we talk about what makes our cars "street", NVH as I think I heard others call it, is a HUGE part. I took the car out for a short cruise last night with new headlights and besides the few interior rattles and squeaks (fire extinguisher is a huge contributor), it was a very nice ride.

On a side note... Truck-lite LED's... AWESOME!
