Is it a high frequency vibration? To the point that you hear it? Or is it a shimmy?

At what speed does the vibration come in to notice?

I know you said you swapped driveshafts but it still might be the driveshaft.
After drag racing gear swaps it's pretty common for driveshaft balancing to become an issue. In fact, it was probably there before but now that you are spinning it at sometimes twice the speed. Balance has to be better than perfect.

the driveshaft came out of a car that has 373s in it just like mine with no vibration problems at all and the vibration comes in around 50mph
