for the record...
my mustang had the same style vibration. It was only noticeable when the car was in gear above 60mph cruising or 5000rpm. When I pressed in the clutch it went away. It ended up being a bent output shaft.
How well do you know your transmission?

I didnt know the tailshaft was bent until I pulled the tranny apart. I bought a rebuilt C9 close ratio toploader from a reputable guy with the bent shaft installed. I was pretty pissed but he warrantied it but not my time

Id seriously consider a new balanced drive shaft with the correct pinion angle before tearing in to your tranny. IF all that checks out and the vibration isnt gone Id bet its the tranny output shaft.
