- Wed Oct 08, 2008 3:46 pm #73318 ok here is the problem during 1st gear take off or going in to revirse once the clutch is let off at a certain point the car vibrates like crazy but when i add more gas to it. it stops. but revirse always vibrates the hole entire car.

Is it the clutch or is it the engine mount? have any one run in to this problem with there engine?

i have an LS in my 92 HB. it just started like this month. the swap was like 3yrs ago! i looked at the mount they look ok no cracks or anything.

Bushes
Mounts
Flywheel
Tranny

You should hopefully find the result somwhere there.
On a scale of 0 - 10 how violent are the vibrations?

0 Being not so bad and 10 being really violent.

- Thu Oct 09, 2008 4:59 am #73472 the scale would be 4. i did timing belt water pump and cam seals and crank seals and a new head gasket, oil pan gasket. 2 and half inch cat back custom piping, piston looks ok he said the motor has 80k on it but i dont think so. because the head or the piston rings might be out or something within a month the oil would be half or lower than half of my dip stick.
Befor i put the motor to gether the clutch look decent now wear spots or any thing. no chatter. im thinking it might be the clutch the presure plate. by chance do know where i can get a good deal on clutch kits something light waight. stock or stage 1.
