Vibration problem after trans install

I just finished installing my rebuilt trans. I also installed a poly torque arm mount and B&M shifter. After installing it I noticed a vibration at speeds over 75mph. The vibration varies with throttle position. Could it be the driveshaft? Pilot bearing? The trans itself? Please help. Thanks.

could be about anything. first thing i'd do is look for missing, or loose bolts in everything you had apart.

Problem fixed. It was the drive shaft. I forgot to put in the clips for the rear u-joint, not a good thing.

One question though. How much gear fluid is suppose to go in a T5? I put in 2 1/2-3 quarts of mobil 1 synthetic gear oil.
