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

It may very well be an internal or torque converter balance problem. Take it back and have them check it out should be fixed for free

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
