Blower motor problems.....help needed

Hey all, over the summer I installed an ac delete box and kept the heater, however my blower motor shakes violently and makes this horrible noise when I turn it on. However, for context, the ac delete box is shorter than the stock blower motor mounting area, so I cut the blades down to size and I'm stuck with the noise lol.... should I order a blower motor with shorter blades? I think I threw the fan off of balance

I think IMO, you answered your own question. Yes, buy the correct fan that fits the squirrel cage.
