mine did the same thing, couldnt figure out with the noise was it was making
thought it was a check ball in the converter cuz the flexplate was still tight and did not wiggle

Be happy thats all that happened, not only could that have gone through ur block and ud be out another motor, that coulda gone through the floor and took your leg off. Course the converter woulda probably stopped that from happening but you never know. Stop being a jew and get an SFI approved one.

Correct me if I am wrong Travis, but I am almost positive his new one is sfi approved. I think this time he is doing it right, gotta give him credit for it.

Thanks for backing me up Will, Yes I purchased a B&M sfi approved 153 tooth flexplate. Come to find out, I was running a 168 tooth, and I've heard they don't work well in the 700r4. Worked in mine, However I do see plenty of score marks in the inside of the bellhousing lol. Also, that odd rawr sound everyone could hear at idle is gone now. I always thought it was valvetrain tapping the valve covers from appearent score marks inside the covers, But now with the new smaller flexplate, I do not notice the sound, Case solved coincidently.
