Question vibration after new clutch

hi-

i have a 1993 LT1 z/28 with a 6-speed. i had a new clutch installed (a Ram clutch kit) the clutch is great its just that there is a vibration from 3500-4800 rpm in all gears. i have been told 2 different things by many ppl. when i called ram clutch's tech support they told me that it is because GM balanced the flywheel and pressure plate together as one piece, so when you install a new pressure plate that has been individually balanced it throws off the balance all together. Everyone else i talked to says they have NEVER heard of such a thing, and they believe that its probably just the pressure plate out of balance. what do you guys think, is RAM clutch giving me the run around??

sounds like bs to me. if that were true you would have to rebalance the assembly every time you replaced the clutch.
