Default Vibaration!

Got this vibration on a friends 90 ZF vette.
It started after a clutch swap.
We got the flywheel resurfaced ( yes i know ). A new GM PP and a new GM clutch.
They took about 0.8mm from the FF. We installed it all in the car. And yes we hade everything marked when we took it apart, both teh FF and drive line.
Now we have a vibration at about 75MP/H. What we have tried is to press down the clutch in 75MP/H to let the engines RPM go down to idel, and we still got vibration! So that must indicate that the vibration is NOT from the FF setup, or..???
We have also tried to rotated the wheels with no luck.
With this installation we also changed the u-joints on the drive shaft. Must we rebalance the driveshaft after, cause we dident do that.
Must a new PP be rebalanced with the FF attached?
Help me help my friend locate the source of this. i really dont like the ide of take the tranny out again.

Regards

I would first make sure the u-joints are all seated properly.
