Hoosier Hurricane (8/27/2019)
Mark, have you done the latest test with the fan belts off?  You gotta eliminate any belt driven components before you tear the engine down for rebuild and possible re-balance.

Ok I disconnected the Belt driven  Accessories. Still has a Vibration. Hand throttle at about 1/4 open and the Vibration begins. I can feel the Fender Vibrating. Continue opening the Gas and it disappears. I haven't checked the Torque Converter yet but if it was loose I would expect Vibration all the Time.? Harmonic Damper would continue once the Vibration started I think? It has not shifted and is accurate.  Any other Suggestions? I wonder if turning the Torque Convertor 1/2 Turn might make a Difference. Again I did not mess with any of the Engine Internals when I had it apart this past Winter so I am very puzzled about what is going on.

There is an excellent suggestion, I found this issue on another car that turned out to be the fan..

Have you tested it in different gears to see if it is the RPM or the speed when you get the vibration? Have you tried jacking rear and running it up to speed without the car moving?

No I have not tried that. Another Job for Tomorrow. Thanks for the Tip. Would a Damper cause this even though it shows no signs of Slippage?

Could the harmonic balancer be the issue

I wanted to Update My Post. I had the Wheels balanced Twice. 2 Different Shops. No change. Had the Driveshaft Straightened and Balanced. No change. So after looking at everything including Brakes and Suspension. II took it to a Shop for a Fresh Perspective. They pointed out Something that I didn't see. If the Engine RPM is gradually increased in neutral the Vibration will occur probably at the same RPM Range as 35-50 MPH.The Problem is in either the Engine or Transmission. It does disappear after 50 MPH when driven. When I had the Motor apart this past Winter I did not do anything other than replace Rear Main Seal and Gaskets. I didn't disturb any of the Internals.Same with Transmission. I did not have this Vibration when I first put it back on the Road. The Harmonic Balancer was Accurate and still is. Could I have a Problem with the Balancer even if its not shifted? On the Plus Side this might give Me an Excuse to rebuild the Engine this Winter? Any Suggestions on what the Problem might actually be? The Car is driveable as is. Just  enough Vibration to be Annoying. The only thing I haven't checked is the Converter to Flex Plate Bolts. Anything is Possible but I am sure I tightened them when I put the Transmission back on the Motor. I will check that Tomorrow.

Thanks Jim. That's much higher MPH than I am having Vibe at. 35-50. Tapers off after 50. I think my next Step is to swap Driveshaft and see if that makes any difference.
Good luck, I hope it turns out to be something simple like the drive shaft balance. There are trans shops that can replace the bushing if needed with the trans installed, I did mine the hard way but it was a lot cheaper LOL.
