Default wheel vibration

i just got a b16 swap done in my crx and after only 120 miles i started to get a heavy vibration from the front end but only when i get on it and over 3g's when im just crusing it doesnt do it only when i accelerate any ideas what could be the problem?

wheel balance, alignment, worn suspension bushings, or worn front wheel bearing?

could be the alternator rubbing the frame. Doubtful, but possible, if you didn't make enough clearance. Also, the b16 makes the ride quite a bit rougher than stock.

they made clearance for the alternator the motor didnt do it the first 100 miles and it only does it under acceleration i was hopeing that might be an indicator.

i took it in today and had the tires checked they were slightly off balance but not enough to cause the problem so they were rebalanced and it still does it just the same but now i cn cross that off from my list of posible causes.
