What do you think?
My car seems to do that but it is smooth and quiet running along. It was balanced when it was rebuilt to 1/2 gram and the clutch assembly was balanced at Edelbrock. It runs real nice and likes to cruise at 50. I have a Brumfield 6-1 head and figured it was compression and body harmonics so not worried at all.
