Default RE: How to narrow down vibration

im also having a vibration issue... when im crusing at like 80 or so the car shakes all my mirrors. if i accelarate it smoothes out, if i let off it gets worse...

it is still there when i have the chutch in or in neutral (or both).

what do you guys think my problem is?(other than spelling)

Thanksfor the help

Tires or driveshaft for sure. NO doubt. Matter of fact, I'd put my money on tires because it comes and goes.

Changed the balancer and the driveshaft was out of balance, had that done today. All is good now.

Now how the hell do you get it rev like a rocket and not a damn truck. The 5.0 reminds me of a truck motor, will and intake manifold solve this?
