I wouldn't doubt it if the damage done to the flexplate(if that's the problem) had something to do with the torque converter bolts back out?

yeah, thats what I am guessing... the damage was already there and making some dyno pulls and a few hard runs on the street just opened it up and made it worse...

yeah... the 125 N2O jet and 150 fuel jets ran pretty good but the tune was pretty rich to begin with so upping the nitrous jet some helped out a lot... way more Hp/Tq just from that. I want to put it on a Dynojet and see what it does there and what the difference is.
