I think you will find that most engine vibrations, are not really due to the engine, but an improperly balanced prop. The prop blade needs to be balanced first and then the hub. Blades first, then hub. Also, look at the spinner balance. I think this is the most over-look item and not done properly. Close-a-enough is really not good enough, closer to perfect is much better. Of course, this is only my theory.
