Hey there
My 68 Barracuda FB 4 Speed that I just got has a terrible shake just as I hit 40mph and smooths out if I let off the gas. I'm just looking for places to start looking to get this under control. The motor is a mild 360 (415hp) and the rear has a 456 geared suregrip. Tires (skinnys in front and fatties in the rear) have all their balance weights and front end rubber is original as far as I can tell. The previous owner tells me the car did not act like this prior to me getting it (had it shipped up from AZ). The car was an original /6 with a 4 Speed (I know, I know) with a 360 crate installed with a new bellhouse. Previous owner drove it through high school with the /6 and 4 Speed and had a 360 put in a few years ago.
I'm losing time (snow will be here soon) and want to drive this thing! Can any of you guys/gals out there help me? Any and all advice will be surely appreciated!!!
Thank you in advance

P.S. Car has air shocks in the rear also, if that helps. Drag stance if you know what I mean!
