any idea what speed it was balanced at ?
a buddy had one done locally from a truck place, and always had a vibration problem with it. i can't remember what rpm it was balanced at, but it was pretty low.
the shaft was in a 55 chevy with 4.10's and a 700R4 od, and it vibrated pretty good at certain speeds. we checked runout, and it was right at the limit [in my opinion] at around .018 or so.
i tried to get him to have it high speed balanced, but someone wanted the car and threw good money at him before he had a chance to try that.
