Posted in the engine forum too, stock 350 w/ rochester 2 bbl, new HEI, new plugs and wires, ran great for 5 minutes put it in gear and then something seems out of balance? started shaking, gets worse up to 2k rpm then mellows but still there? is it possible that something came loose in the torque converter or the flywheel weight? just seems odd that it ran soo well until I put it in gear?? any ideas? not timing, not wires, not carb,, all triple checked....

What rpm is it idling at in gear, may be too low.
