Anyone heard anything like this before?



First heard this noise after we replaced the engine in my IROC last year. The noise is coming from the flex plate/torque converter area.

Along with the noise I found the transmission was slipping as well and the box was taken out and rebuilt. Picked up the car last week and it drives fine but the noise is still there.

The noise and the slipping aren't necessarily related because the TV cable wasn't reset after the engine was put in and this may have wrecked the trans. I'm not driving the car right now in case this noise is something serious :o

Any ideas on this would be appreciated!

Cheers...I hope it's nothing that serious, will just have to wait and have a closer look when I've got a chance in daylight!
