    Vibes after motor and trans swap.

    I will try that if it's not my issue. Another thought is the crank spacer. As far as I know I don't require the crank spacer (to center the torque converter snout) for my application but I need to confirm this as well. Thank you.

    Vibes after motor and trans swap.

    @DoubleDingo Thanks for the reply, I did bolt the flex plate up to spec with the right hardware. Now you guys are going to think I'm crazy but I've been researching and troubleshooting this for a year and a half now and pulled the trans twice! But I just ran across a small thread that...

    Vibes after motor and trans swap.

    Hello guys/gals, Ever since I did my LS swap on my 87' C10, I've had some rough vibe issues from idle up to about 3000 rpms (This is approximate as it's been awhile now). These vibes persist whether I'm in Park or driving under load. The reason I'm posting here is to get more exposure and the...

    Absolutely! Especially a used motor that you've never heard run before.

    The lower bellhousing pan was rubbing the converter I guess. The pan was gouged right out on the sides. I'll have to see why it's tight there. Runs real nice and quiet though. No smoke, no ticks or knocks, tight. Threw on some Thrush bottles until I can get a real muffler put on. Just need to...

    Gotcha, that makes sense. There was some fluid in there. Guess it could be an idler bearing or anything at this point.

    Thanks. I checked the power steering fluid again and it was below the dip stick so maybe that's the sound. I'll put some mufflers on it and troubleshoot from there.

    Haha can't wait. I'm doing a nice quiet stealth exhaust, probably side dump too. Suits these trucks.

    Thanks a bunch. What a relief. Mufflers will help diagnose it but something sure doesn't sound 100% right now.

    Hi guys first start on Old Brown finally. Hard to hear much of anything but there is a funny racket there. Almost sounds like a power steering pump at first but you'll notice the sound drags on shut down. Any ideas on what this sound may be? I'll be putting some temporary mufflers on her...

    Thanks a million man!! The only thing I can't make out is what connects to the OEM connector on top? Can't quite read it. Thanks again.
