Found my noise! Forgot to update from my last post. It broke the flex plate and did some damage to the trans. Nothing major, I freshened the trans, sent the convertor out, and stuck a new flex plate on it. Noise fixed.. lol

First time I’ve had my Dart out in about 10 years. Glad I made the effort to take it up there. What an awesome event! I even picked up a favorite car award!! Some great footage of the event, this is my friends channel. He’s a fellow mopar guy and posts lots of content so check him out.
