hello all, just a few questions on my C6. I have it, and the 390 which I have rebuilt, on a cradle outside of the car. I have been running the engine on this cradle for a few months now (you can see the setup in my picture gallery). the tranny has a 3000 stall B&M converter in it (which hadn't been used since the early 80's), and from the start, the tranny made a "whining" noise that we thought was coming from the converter (a few people that listened to it run, thought the noise was normal for a high stall converter). first question...is it normal? After about 2 hours on the engine, the tranny decided to start seeping fluid from where the tranny dipstick enters the transmission. the o-ring is old and I knew it wasn't a good seal, but just for running on the stand, it shouldn't have been a problem. second question...what could cause the tranny to leak like that?
thanks, erik
