The vibration shows up going down the road at highway speeds. I also 
have a different driveshaft in now, so I don't think it's that. It 
almost seems like a tire out of balance, but like I said, 3 different 
sets of wheels have been on the car. I've also repacked the front 
bearings and they're adjusted up snug. If you push the cluth in going 
down the road it subsides a little. That also tells me it's someting in 
the motor. I had the flywheel turned and put a new clutch in when I put 
it together and the flywheel would only go on 1 way as I recall.
