Some people have experienced vibration problems at certain RPM's.. but the cause has not usually been found ...so it could be a different source for each...
Use a 300 flywheel if you can get it.
This combo is often more viable than getting the old MB AUTO trans fixed but is not the perfect solution .
Take care with the driveshaft modifications.
