well, nevermind. No pictures but might have pictures of a pulled motor sooner then later. Went out and did 2 dig runs, which the QA1's didnt help with traction at all so far, not on the street anyhow, set on setting 5. Did 2 dig runs and now ive got a knock under load. But only under load and at rpm, it doesnt knock at all at idle. So gonna check the flexplate/converter bolts here either tomorrow or next week and then go from there. Perhaps a cracked flexplate??? Who knows. Nothing has gone right latelly!!

they feel absolutelly great driving on the street at 5. Doesnt dive bad or handle bad at all. Cant say I feel much difference from stock. Ill try it out on the street at 2 or 3 and see if it helps transfer, after I figure out this knock.
