    My bet is your axle is in need of some attention.

    Either pinion bearing or adjustment / rebuild.

    I'm pretty sure that is my vibration also.

    I thought for sure it was u-joints, but i took it to the shop and they said the u joints are perfect but were the axle connects to the rear end, you can move the rear end piece around in a circle or egg shape....

    I would look at this on your car asap, as it most likely is the problem, if you have the stock 10 bolt in it.

        I had a terrible vibration issue in my 95 Z28 at 60+. After some research I found out that it was being caused by a warped driveshaft.

          Well I guess I have to look into a bunch of stuff again.

          Josh, Dude you have a lemon j/k
          Man that suks about the starter

          The trans mount is a Energy Suspension mount.

          I do have a 9", 4.10's and a locker but keep in mind that this was going on with the stock rear and driveshaft also.
          The only thing that is the same is the trans, trans mount, and engine.

          I have replaced: Motor mounts, Trans mount 2yrs ago.
          Put on UMI Rear LCA's, Torque Arm with new bushing.
          The only thing that I can't do is pwr break the car and see if the motor jumps around but I would think I would hear that just getting on it.

          That's something else too, I can beat on this till I get to about 70mph and then all hell breaks loose and it don't matter what gear or if it's in gear when it starts either.

          Now I dynoed the car last year and I never felt a thing so that has me wondering if something isn't a muck some where in the rear?

          I'm going to see what happens if I swap my tires around??
          I don't think that's going to help but I'll see

                When I put an Energy Suspension Poly Trans Mount on my bird my car pretty much felt like it was going to shake to pieces. I went back to a stock LT1 trans mount and LT1 Trans bracket and everything felt fine.

                  obviously because a stroker LT1 > stock LS1
