Hey guys,
So about a year ago, my torque converter went. I had the trans rebuilt with a Circle D, billet shaft and Exedy clutches.
2-3 months ago the trans locked up while cruising in 5th. Oil pump and housing broke, clutches burnt up, and the converter was "eaten up around the shaft" and had to be sent to Circle D for repair.
2 weeks ago I got my car back from the above repair, drove great for 2 weeks. Then suddenly started making a ton of noise. Whining/squealing noise from the trans, erratic shifting and the car dying/loss of power. Lost reverse as well. Began when I was just driving around town. Went from completely fine to as it is now in about 10 minutes. Higher speed driving the noise is louder and more often.
Here is a video showing the noise. If anyone has any pointers as to what it may be I would appreciate it. [MENTION=10926]beefcake[/MENTION]

Up to 0:38 is reverse, and then most of the noise in drive happens between 1:20 and 2:12.
I have a hard time believing anything other than the shop screwed something up on reassembly since I haven't even had it a month since I got it back from them. So I'd like to get some opinions. I'm thinking something with the torque converter? Mods in signature, I'm only between 700-800whp.
Thanks guys.
