all angles as posted have a - slope. Do these fall within range, there's a very minor vibration at 45-85, brand new wheels and tires, even before with the old stock factory wheels,had same slight vibration.
Also those listed angle above are very close to the before lowering of the vehicle at factory height.,lastly vehicle has 64k original,and i've serviced since new.

So, lets make sure we're all on the same visual here....

tailshaft angle -2.6 slope down towards center support bearing
|
The trans tailshaft is sloping down (higher @ the front of the vehicle vs rear (normal).
Quote:
|
1 shaft angle -3.6 slope down towards center support bearing
|
The main shaft is again higher @ the front/trans output vs the rear/carrier bearing (normal).
Quote:
|
2nd shaft -1.3 slope down towards center support bearing
|
Is the secondary shaft higher @ the front/carrier bearing than the rear/pinion joint (normal) or higher @ the rear than the front (not normal)?
Quote:

pinion angle -4.8 slope down to ground
|
Is the pinion (@ the u-joint) pointing up toward the sky or down toward the ground?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....
Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
