It sounds like it's more rpm related. I would take the rpm you run in 5th at 85 and see if the same vibration is there in other gears at the same rpm. It could be a by product of the engine combination or harmonics through the mounts at that rpm. Could be the tranny but would exhaust other possibilities.

Default Vibraaaaation

Hey guy's
Just to let you know the vibration is only in 5th. We have checked pinion angle and adjusted it, then ran the car at the same rpm as the vibration in the other 4 gears to rule out anything in front of transmission and then ran the car at the same mph in 4th gear to rule out evrything behind the transmission. The vibration is in the box.

Thanks Kevin for taking care of that for me. You guys do go that extra mile. Also thanks for taking to Hector at Rick's hotrods and for them to also fix my tank.

Hey Anthony. The list is very small and it's being addressed right now. The tank is going back to Rick's for rebaffling, the tranny is going back to be addressed, the water injection was not shooting out much water at all. 5 tanks of gas, and it only went down one inch in the tank itself, and a 10 pound boost pully. And to fix the right side headlight door, that's pretty much it at this point. I have had a hard time getting a video camera.

Tremic is really the best tranny for this kind of car. Don't worry about a few issues with a few people. It's a bad ass tranny. Just happens to be an issue with mine.
