So heres the deal,if you have the stock shifter junk it and get a B&M, I missed 4th and went right to 2nd, pegged the tach, clutched it and gave it a push into neautral, and now my engine shakes (kink of like its missing)at low rpm and progressively gets worse as the rpm increases. So I immediately popped the hood and its not knocking or making any strange telltale noises at all, matter a fact it runs great except it shakes/vibrates, it doesnt matter if the car is in gear, neautral, clutch in or out, it just shakes. I changed the oil(no metal in it at all,I strained it and everything), plugs looked good but I replaced them too, and I reset the computer which hasnt displayed any codes. the fluids all look great which leads me to think that I have a balancing problem or possibly an ignition problem. Is it possible for the harmonic balancer to go bad on these svt c's? My mustangs balancer is a two piece and the outer ring rotated in relation to the inner one it acted almost the exact same way. Any suggestions??

Yeah, they are all brand new and look fine, I think I'll try a new set of wires and a dmd.

You might have knocked a sparkplug wire loose when the engine torqued over. Definatly check motor mounts, especially the one under the airbox, and the one thats behind the transmission. -Nick
