Yeah no more censorship, I am still trying to figure out why because everyone else seems to have something going on in their sigs or whatever..And it wasn't even my personal sigs either..

I thought the movie was awesome. I saw it opening day and I want to see it again. It was up there with star trek for me. I was so so about bot movies until I saw them.

Big congrats Petey. It'll be nice to see you get the recognition you deserve around here without having to be so shady about it.

Update...

The head is off the car and at the machine shop. Hopefully it will be done (the head) and back on tonight or tomorrow. I'm waiting for a new coil to arrive before I can have it back on thurs or friday. I can't friggen wait, this is just in the nick of time for me...

this is what I look like right now...

Cheers everyone

We believe it's my balance shafts off rotation. Generically an online four with a larger crank mass sees large vertical vibrations around 4000 rpm. The balnxe shafts are tuned to throw weight in an opposing motion to reduce those vibrations so you don't feel it in the seat of your pants. Being off they are accentuating the vibrations and seem to be creating a resonance.

Sounds nasty and fingers crossed it's all it is

thanks for the clarification. looks like that doesn't apply to the X's because we don't have balance shafts.

Do you mean a physical resonance, ie... vibration from the bottom end?

Is this something new?

+1 it can really only be the counterweights off timing.. Hoping to get your car set up sooner then later Doug, I am gonna see what I can do as far as getting you an alignment on the hunter But you should have gotten camber plates!!!
