    Again, I have to ask as to why this post exist if you're going to do what you want anyway? Seems as though everyones advice so far has been neglected and disregarded. So why post?

    BTW, keep the personal attacks down, or I can just keep you from posting altogether.

        No. As a moderator, I have to keep up with whats being posted on here. I read every post. We're not going to bargain about what who can or can't post. I can and will continue to respond at my own discretion along with everyone else, and you stop with the personal attacks. Hows THAT sound? This isn't "Lets Make a Deal". Follow the rules, or get cut off, its that simple.

                No we all told you what you should have done in the first place was to take it to the dealer and get a full diagnostics test done lol. That's not useless info!

                  AGAIN!!! i need a new slave cylinder and a clutch,so why pay $55 to resurface the flywheel when i can get one for $79 new,so this was going to be done ANYWAY! god understand this please,if anything you can say i wasted a whole $9 on a motor mount with actually got rid of a vibration @5200 rpms,so if you want to say i wasted money,then yes i did a whole $9,wow.

                    Not once did I say you wasted your money! MY point is that you still don't have the INITIAL problem fixed! Hence the full diagnostics.

                            UPDATE! i got the car diagnosed by another mechanic(close friend)i was there the whole time,he scanned the car with a $6000 GM scanner which told every single detail of the car,he did every test imaginable for over 2 hours,from injector pulse to crank learn tests thingy lol,that scanner is amazing,showed average AFR @ 14.7 checked for misfires and tested it with live data and got nothing,he even shut down individual injectors to force misfires to test each cylinder.Every thing check out with the motor. We put the car on a lift and started it up and looked for things that were vibrating while driving,the driveshaft was causing the vibration i was talking about at 90mph+ we reset the D/S and the problem was gone,but the 3000 rpm vibration is still there but again it is barely noticable during accleration but definitely during deceleration,we found a spot where the exhaust is touching a bit(not the cause but can help)and i was advised to remove the poly T/Q arm mount and put a stock mount to reduce vibration,also found out that the tentioner may need to be replaced or get a smaller belt because it flapped around a bit at high rpms,but again we got no definite answer,i was told to also change the right motor mount since i changed the left. I'm going to work on that asap and the bushing,so i hope you guys are happy because i got it diagnosed for around 4 hours straight for a total of $10 in gas to drive to the shop, and thats it lol. But again if i still have the problem i am willing to take it to another friend(erik) who would have the same equipment but alot more experience and knowledge due to specializing in birds/camaros. So thats the update,let me know what you think.

                              it sounds like its mechanical in your motor. cam crank or something working with them is fubar'd.

                                Well that's good, i agree, take the guy's advice and change that other mount, the poly bushing and try to get the exhaust so it's not touching anything. And it sounds like fixing the driveshaft helped some too. Doing all the scanner stuff is nice, but I think the most important thing for a vibration is getting under there to look for mechanical issues that a scanner won't show.
