Input Shaft Movement I took my T56 out today and noticed that you can move the input shaft around (side to side, up and down). Is it normal to have this play?

It is normal . That movement is the result of bearing end play. It should not be excessive but it is normal. It is most desireable to keep this to a minimim. Only a fresh - built box will have no play.

alright, here's a question. I just got my 01 SS about 2 weeks ago and am noticing a rumbling/rattling noise coming from under the car. It kind of sounds like the exhaust is rattling or something. Could this be because our cars have a loose input shaft? do all our cars have this sound? or is it something to worry about?
