I've been going through the threads here regarding vibration when going from neutral to 1st at stop. I seen that it may be cv joints, engine/tranny mounts, dog bone mount, etc
I recently replaced my clutch to one similar to a sbc stage 2 endurance (got a valair clutch) and replaced dogbone mount
I get engine shaking from neutral to 1st. It seems to shake less if I rev the engine to about 1800rpm. If I let off less than that it shakes. Other gears have no issue. Engine mount and tranny mount look fine (didn't see any tears or deterioration)
but I tried to do the engine mount test by putting it in gear and try letting off slowly while in park and I see it move. Not sure what the tolerances are in terms of how much play.
I did see the cv joint on driver side did have a tear on the boot(inner), but there is no l clunking when I turn. Last cv axle I got had a clicking sound when I turn and there was a tear in the same spot.
when leaving from my parking spot I don't feel the shaking. Seems only when from acclerating.
my thoughts are either clutch is too aggressive (even though I can slip it without shaking), cv axle, or engine/tranny mounts.
thoughts?
