Hey Robert - looks like I'll be saving on gas for a while...since I won't be driving it very far from home. A strange, new vibration has started that I have yet to identify. I was trying to keep up with a minivan on highway 87 (stop laughing Karl, there is more to the story than I will tell here) and first heard/felt it pulling away from a stop light near home. I confirmed the flex plate, bell housing and convertor bolts are all present and tight. Since the engine still sounds so good, I'm going to look at the dampener, engine mounts and drive shaft next.

I sure hope this is an easy find and fix. But if not, maybe its time for a BIGGER engine?
