So my experience with a cracked flexplate, they usually crack in the center and is tough to confirm visually. When I heard that noise i immediately had flashbacks to my cracked flex plate. the noise went away when I slipped it into neutral but would return when it was in gear… keep on keeping on homie, happy birthday
You need safety glasses for the next inspection,white it's running look at your starter and see if the pinion gear is hitting the flex plate I've seen that happen the spring in the solenoid breaks
Like you said get someone help you get it in gear . Get you a piece of water hose put hose up to ur ear an diff parts of engine. You should find were noise is coming from ..
I mentioned that 2 vids ago, my muffler just had a hanger crack, that little cracked exhaust hanger sounded like a rabbit with tuberculosis getting the brakes beat out of em
I would definitely unbolt the converter to separate from flywheel then start up. Also try to separate your header’s from exhaust to see if there’s nothing rattling. Almost sounds like your exhaust pipes tapping against something under load. Good luck and Happy Birthday. I’m Guessing you’ll be 20
If it's not your muffler I would unbolt the converter, that will at least tell you before or after converter. And I would have someone you trust sit in the truck and put it in and out of gear, then get down and hear where that noise is coming from
Over 350hp you need a fsi flexplate cheap insurance seen stock flecks break on 300 plus hp motors tci sales I now fsi flexplate reasonably priced what I went with on my c10
Check some videos on how a bad torq converter sounds! Finns fall off and rattle sounding exactly like your engine sounded last video! Torq converter is probably the issue sense flex plate is good and bolts are all tight! Many mistake bad torq converter for rod knocks! One other thing, probably not this but seen a guy have simular found from something coming loose in his exhaust internally but thats probably not it! Bet its the converter and if ran while bad, can ruin your transmission! Good luck!
Happy bday
Thanks this is a good video !
Have the same problem going on. I have a 89 k1500. I bought flex plate too.. hmm

Disconnect the torque converter from the flywheel and start it up

I got question your truck came with a th400 transmission or did you swap from the th350 did you have to change the two piece drive shaft
Happy birthday brother have a great one
It might be a engine issue you might have too much end play and your crank is walking back and forth rubbing against the bearings
Some interesting, content
Happy Early Birthday Bro! And I say drink the c10 until something breaks!! And I think you’re going to be 15 years old! 😂😂😂

Happy birthday! Man I hope you get your baby right! Keep making content you're doing a great job on the c10
Check the nuts and bolts for the torque converter
How’s the oil look? I’d recommend to start simple and frail the oil, if you see hella prices of flake chances are a wiped out lifter or cam
Have you tried running it with the cover off to see if you can pinpoint the noise any better
Happy Birthday 🎈
The noise is coming from your muffler
I mentioned that 2 vids ago, my muffler just had a hanger crack, that little cracked exhaust hanger sounded like a rabbit with tuberculosis getting the brakes beat out of em
Check and make sure all the torque converter bolts are tight !!
This is a tough one over the net, can you shake the exhaust or try to move the mufflers some how

Check your starter and see if your flywheel is rubbing against it
I would pull the starter off & inspect it thoroughly. I know it sounds crazy but it can’t hurt.
Check your exhaust hangers
Happy Birthday Brother , I think your age is 21!!

I must have missed it! What happpened to make you think it could be the flex plate
I’m not positive but appears you’re missing a Starter bolt
Dang separate them and start the truck!

Ls swap it
loose bolt in the engine
Your timing is off on your motor
Doubt it.. especially if it was running fine before and he didn't mess with timing
Ask jmalcom on UA-cam
