    The whine is from the front center it seems, along with that rumbling. The bearings have about 2-3k each.

    Just want to add that I heard this keeping it in first, so it's not gear dependent. It's definitely speed dependent. Another thing I found, was when I was goign 20 and shifted to 1st, it sounded like something made a loud clank noise as the car shuddered/jerked. I was expecting a little something for the downshift but not that :| Maybe I need to check mounts? How many are there/where are they located?

    stop doing that.

    your engine mounts are under the harmonic balancer, and the trans mount is on the other side opposite of it.


    heres a vid for the trans mount, its a regal, but the job is the same for a gtp. motor mount is the same job as well. just looks different.


    there are 3 parts.


    98 Buick Regal GS, F body brakes, Caddy STS wheels, tinted tails L36 bottom end, lightly ported heads, 1.95 roller rockers, headers, gen 5 N* 3.0 pulley, FSIC, 42 lb injectors, a BrandonHall rebuilt trans, DHP tuned and AEM water/Meth injection https://goo.gl/gpV5kW

    I don't think I'll understand this, other then by coincidence, but I had new tires put on today and I'll be damned if I'm not driving a cadillac now. I can't believe it really was the tires.
