Ok, so I asked a lot of people this question and I am not sure I got the right answers. I guess I might just be worried. I did a head swap (changed the balancer at the same time) and 2 days later, the car started vibrating like crazy after a few burn outs. It drove perfect for those 2 days before hand. It vibrates with higher rpm, no matter whether its in gear or not, moving or not, all variations. A lot of people say I threw a weight from my flywheel or I that maybe bent it when I did the burn out. At idle, it barely vibrates, but when I rev it up to over 3K it vibrates like crazy. I can drive it, but only in the 2k rpm range. I just parked it for now. I drove it like that to get home and probably went 15 miles. Do you think it's the flywheel? Did I damage something else in the engine? I replaced the clutch probably 40k miles ago. Should I not drive it at all like this?
 
Definately check the harmonic balancer. Start the car up and let it idle and look at the HB, if it is wobbling or anything than turning true than that is your problem. Did you buy a good HB or is it just a stock replacement.

As far as the vibration, I think I've narrowed it down to the flywheel, or clutch assembly. I'm just gonna replace the whole clutch/flywheel stuff since I was going to anyway and go from there.
