drive this thing next to the wall or concrete median on the expressway. if you hear the same or louder then put in the clutch and it goes away i would strongly suspect the ring and pinion in the trans. i also might be main shaft bearings in the trans, thats what causes the R&P to go bad in the first place.

I just got my new motor and rebuilt tranny from a reputable builder running for the first time today. I took the van for a ride around the block.

I know once I get in touch with the tranny rebuilder,if its the tranny he will make good. Just looking for suggestions...
