Do you feel vibration? I had an out of balance flexplate and the seats shook when idling. Also is your belhousing indexed correctly to the block? If the centerline of the converter is not in-line with the centerline of the crank you can create major carnage.

The Flexplate is a TCI unit and it is there race version (SFI approved). It is the second one on there. The bell housing is stock but it is indexed correctly from the dowel pins in the back of the Block. Or I hope it is. The last time I had it running, earlier this year, you could tell the Convertor was hitting the back of the bell housing so it was shaking big time.

Does the flex plate wobble when you look at it running? When did all the problems start? New Motor? Tranny? etc?

I haven't looked under there while it was running but I will do that now that you mention it. It all started right after I restored it. I started a full build on the car in 1996 and finished in 2003 with my first show at Earnhardt in April 2005. I took the whole car apart and built it from the ground up. I mean everything was new- Interior, Exterior, Engine, Suspension, Drivetrain, etc. If anyone has seen it would know what I am talking about. I won my class at the National Show at the Casino in October with 488/500 total points. I lost points because of dust on my exhaust, back seat wrong style from front racing seats and paint chipped off of windshield blade studs that the wipers connect to. Go figure....Just to give you an idea what my car has gone through. I invested somewhere in the neigborhood of $50,000 over that 7 year period. I wonder if the studs are off but that would be impossible as I am using the factory position on the Block. I wish this was fixed so I can join back in the fun with the Club. This sucks ass.....................Thanks 'Burntire' for some good suggestions.

Man, I just finished reading the 1st post from April 2008 all the way through to today. A lot of funny ones that had me laughing and depressed at the same time since Nick and I didn't hook up that night. I hope I can fix this....

If the converter flexplate is visibly shaking and you replaced both the converter and flexplate I would start looking at alignment issues. Knocking out front seal would indicate the converter is not spinning centered. I assume the converter was installed correctly and fully inserted into the pump before tightening to the flexplate with correct converter spacing. The only other thing I could think of is an issue with the crank / motor or the flexplate does not have the correct balance for the motor.
