Flex plate?
My wife can't decide what to do, seeing as its actually her truck AND her money. We could fix it again (putting a third engine in this thing, and way more money than we paid for it.) Or buy some other used vehicle, that may or may not also crap out in a few months.- Draq

My gauges have been normal from what I remember. Except my temp gauge wasn't working after the engine swap, but checking my radiator often yeilded a full level.- Draq

Flex plate?
OK guys, so my '87 'burb 454 had a metallic hollow knock/bang one day. Got under it and am 85% sure it was coming from the bell housing, which strongly suggests flex plate. Well driving to work a day or two later (literally about 5miles away) there's a metal breaking sound, and the engine goes...- Draq

Hey guys
I moved from one tiny town with a train running right thru, to this one. No biggy. I might enjoy it more if my damn truck ran right. Here before too long I should be able to do just that.- Draq
