Started my motor today after installing exhaust and new gages and it was running fine and all of the sudden it sounded like it was knocking. Had 55lbs. oil pressure at idle and didn't seem to run any different but when i looked under the vehicle it looked like the flywheel was wobbling. The converter didn't seem to be wobbling though. got any ideas as to what the problem might be?

Thanks for the reply grim. I got it figured out though. I had to modify my oil pan to get it to work and there was a piece of baffle that came partially loose and somehow got up in the crankshaft and that was the noise. bummer was I had to pull the motor completly out to drop the oil pan. Got er back in and hopefully tomorrow I'll have it going again. Doesn't really explain the flywheel wobble much but didnt find anything wrong there. Thanks anyways.
