I have a 97 S/C with a low speed shutter around 1500 RPM after a easy take off from standing start. No noise, no steering wheel vibration. Runs smoutly before annd after, lasts for only a few seconds. Does not matter going straight or turning, seams a little worse on right turn. I noticed a bit of oil on right side C/V boot, no tear in boot, oil is around clamp.

- clean the boot and watch it. Dry gas will work as cleaner, or 409 or similar spray on cleaner.

- when did you last inspect your motor mounts?

Does it happen with heavier throttle? Can you make it stop by applying lighter throttle?

How many miles on the car? Have you ever changed the ignition wires?

Does not happen on hard acceleration, 33000 miles and original wires. I believe it goes away when coasting

Did you determine whether your motor mounts are any god?

Did you determine whether your plug wires are any good?

Does this happen only in 1st gear? When it's hot? If so, try pulling the shifter down into 1st and see if it goes away. I had this happen to me when my trans fluid was badly overdue for changing and let it go, ended up needing clutches replaced (and a full rebuild at that point because I ignored it for too long).

Check motor mounts and plug wires as recommended above too. Plug wires cause funny things to happen.
