Default Blinking SES

my SES light has been blinking for a wile now, and i was told it could be bad spark plugs or plug wire, so i just changed my plugs with NGK plugs with some MSD wires and the SES light still blinks, the blinking started right after the 3600 VIG was installed, and i did buy it used, thanks for any help

the light doesnt blink at idle.. it blinks when im drivin the car and give it some gas.. hope that helps

From what I understand, is that the "blinking" ses light is an indication of a misfire. Someone correct me if i'm wrong.
Have you reset you computer?

Like I mentioned on the "other" site, I still think the problem is related to a chattering torque converter, especially since it started RIGHT after the TC was changed, and with a used part.
