Got it rebuilt.vibration appeared which was not there before. Spent about 5 grand. while in park and all gears it's still there . when I hit the gas it kinda roars and does vibrate.talked to another fellow he thought that it's unbalanced inside engine.bearings, pistons , rings , polished scratch on crankshaft, refaced valve and head seats , planned manifold , main bearings cb brg. T washers , and a better head core

Another detail I forgot to mention is I find once in awhile when you hit the gas and let it go it feels like the tranny or ? Kind of slips with a thump but very minutely If that makes any sense. ? Could a problem still be with the tor. Converter
