I have that same setup. I have a 5.0 shifter which is stiff so it vibrates a little but doesn't vibrate anymore when I rev then it does at idle..

Replace the whole clutch kit. They're fairly cheap to replace.

I would change the mount before you change the whole clutch kit. I've heard of people getting crazy vibration out of the mount. Put a rubber mount on, see what happens.

+1, if your gonna do all the work to get to the flywheel you might as well just buy a whole new kit.

vibration fixed...gm performance ls7 clutch pressure plate and flywheel...the flywheel that was in the car is an all aluminum with a bolt on steel wear plate throwing the motor balance off....don even know if that flywheel is worth anything if you know anyone needing a ls7clutch and pressure plate they are still in great condition...flywheel looks good but do not know of an application for it...
