TKX Post Swap RPM Related Vibration

i take it as NO vibration issue prior to upgrade?

been a while since i used an SST Kit to perform a 727-to-TKO upgrade

on my conversion thread i took a straight edge from the block n valve covers and marked a few dots on firewall prior to upgrade just for reference. i think after the upgrade my engine rear was pointed downward from the marker dots. tough to remember but i my angle was good but i went ahead and added a shim to bring up engine close to the original marker dots, couldn’t get it exactly as before.

might be worth a try to shim it up at the trans mount if you have some reference pics to review

That's smart. I'm going to do that when I swap in the 727/GV in my 72
