You need to keep the prop driveline as straight as possible if there is a dogleg in the position of the centre support then it will vibrate.

David, sure you don't have a auto prop you would like to sell me?

I had my flange re-drilled at a machine shop. They somehow managed to do it incorrectly the first time - but hey, saved some rotating mass!
Your 6MT is still going strong David, after 50.000 km and LOTS of track days and fun.
I've wrecked the car though...oversteer...90 km/h impact. But it'll be back

Hans Martin, The accident was caused by the ' nut behind the wheel ' as we say in England.50,000 Km's I reckon you're about out of warranty then - Phew!! that's a bit of luck.
Kind regards David APi
