Engine vibration Sign In

Have '86-up Chev crate 350 installed in '65 Cadillac with a vibration that starts at about 1800 rpm and increases proportionately with the increase of rpms. At on point in working on motor mounts, the engine was inadvertently started with harmonic balancer resting on front crossmember. MIGHT the balancer have been damaged in a way that could cause the vibration??? This is with the car (T-400 trans) out of gear (park) on driveway. Have extensively checked for vacuum leaks, replaced sparkplugs, and checked for shorted plug wires with no change in condition.

You could have even bent the crankshaft.
