Also, don't dismiss a cold jug or two wires crossed. an 8 will chug on acceleration, then smooth out at cruise

Any chance you checked the prop shaft to see if it is straight. There is an allowed run out number to avoid vibration. I forget what is allowable. .003 maybe?

My money is on the prop. You say it’s “redone”. Care to elaborate? A new CNC prop is velvet smooth….

I have a 1968 Correctcraft Mustang with 318 225HP.
When accelerating, it vibrates bad but cruise around 30 MPH and under, smooth. 12" X 12" prop redone, new strut bearing, aligned strut and shaft alignment, and engine runs great. Only thing I can think of is mounts. Any other ideas and where to obtain the mounts? Thank you |
