Default Shaking Mustang?

Just did a clutch install 500 miles ago, Just thought i let you know if that might have something to do with my problem

My Car Shakes real bad at WOT After 3500 - 4000 Rpms

And the Car Idle's Ruff , I just did , Plugs ,Wires, Distibitor Cap, Rotor

No Luck for the idle but my big concern is the SHaking Could this be my FLY WHeeL?

If So WhY>? I no its a old flywheel ,But what are the symptoms of a bad one!

Maybe the flywheel is cracked or bent or loose? Maybe all three? Does it shake constantly or just above 3500? For the idle check for codes, could be something in there. Clean the IAC and check for vac leaks, then again all my rough idle problems were at idle, not driving. I had a bad driveshaft years ago that didnt cause problems unless i hit 75mph. I couldnt tell ya what my rpms were tho.

Are you sure it is the RPM's that are making it shake? The car could shake if a wheel is out of alignment, may look into that.
