High Pitched Buzz when accelerating

Hey Guys.
Really reaching here, but didn't know if anyone has experienced this.
I just did a pretty stout 350 based vortec swap, and when I hit the throttle hard, I get an extreme buzz from either the door, or rear driver side fender area. I mean it's a high pitched, grinding on plastic with a cutoff wheel kind of sound. I checked the fan/hose clearance, and the alternator fan/ hose clearance and all of that is fine. I can't figure out for the life of me what would make that noise. It's an 85 auto if that matters.
Thanks.

Found it. Alternator fan hits the Hood. Bad stuff.
