The trans is not touching the frame anywhere. The tail is about a half an inch above the cross-member. We used a urethane trans mount. It is really close to the cross-member and I am not sure if it is touching. If any part is touching it would just be the urethane block on the side of the cross-member.

The vibration feels more "harmonic" the way it starts and stops at a certain rpm. I think that it is either an out of balance pressure plate, a first for me, or the machine shop got the flywheel out of balance when they turned it. I have a new pressure plate on the way and we are taking a different flywheel to a different machine shop to get it turned. We will remove the trans Sat. and install the new parts and hope for the best.

Thanks for all the input. Keep posting if you have more ideas. I will let you know the results of our re-installation.

Mike
