Feel vibration around 50mph

If you go to the trouble of removing the flywheel, replace the pressure plate and plate with a 6 cylinder Falcon. But you'll have to have the flywheel redrilled to take the Falcon pressure plate. Original clutch mechanism can be retained. AND the clutch will be lighter too.

I am curious on why you would recommend this particular fix. I have never had any problems with a quality stock replacement clutch. Is there something inherently better with the Falcon clutch?
 
Oh, well... I guess there's probably nothing wrong with the original pressure plate if it's set up right. But down here in Oz, the original 3 finger pressure plates are hard (and expensive) to get, but Falcon ones are easy, cheaper and as I said... talking from personal experience, much lighter than the original.
I guess the original 3 finger plates are easier and cheaper to get Stateside, so maybe my suggestion is more appropriate for Aussie readers.
 
Is the Falcon clutch a diaphragm clutch?

Also, I think your Falcons are a bit different than the ones sold stateside.
 
If possible, I highly recommend going to a diaphragm pressure plate vs. the old three finger style. Pedal force is so light & easy (gets even easier as it breaks in) and it holds tight.

I have the Centerforce PP & clutch unit on a Weber aluminum flywheel and love it.
 
I got the vibration problem fixed. It was the front yoke on the driveshaft. Wasn't holding one of the caps right. Thanks for all the suggestions.
