Fresh Rebuild 7.3 Engine Running Rough
I have a fresh rebuilt 2000 7.3 160/100% Full Force New Injectors, 38R Turbo, DI Headers, 4" Pipes, DI Intercooler. Engine has all the bells and whistles. Rebuilt tranny with Stallion torque converter. The engine now has 250 miles on it. Everything feels good on idle and when you are easy with the throttle, tranny shifts good like it was when it was new. But when you really get on it you can hear the disk in torque converter or tranny making crazy noise in the drivers firewall. It also feels rough the higher the RPM the more you feel. You can feel some vibration in the steering wheel & gas pedal Once you hit 45 the torque converter locks RPMs come down and the roughness goes away until you hit 70 or 80 MPH and RPMs are back up. I had driveshaft rebalanced, universal joints replaced ect.. I have DI Tunes and going to Jody for live tuning in the next few weeks.
Could the roughness be extra 200 Hp that ones not used too? <!-- / message -->
