Yes I agree, it sounds like the vibration is drive train related not alignment. Best to get it on a dyno and run it up to speed and see if the shaft is the cause. Either that or wait for it to come flying out the back of the truck one day

Although on my C20/LS swap I did not change to a one piece shaft but I did have a couple tries at balancing the shaft just right.

Since I am just joining the fun-- that is a great looking C20, you have done a real good job with it. It would have taken all the wind out of my sails for a week if I smoked my board. Glad you kept at it.
