Whining Noise
Had 3.90 gears and a Yank 3200 coverter installed a couple of months ago. Ever since, have heard a high pitched whine on acceleration. Pitch gets higher as RPMs increase until overtaken by sound of exhaust. Sounds similar to engine noise transmitting through stereo speakers. Guys at the shop that did the install say it's not the gears or the converter, but they hear whine also. They think it is something electrical, although definitely not coming through speakers.
