[Fot] Transmission noise

[RACER BUD]

I have had a bent backing/engine plate...If someone has tried to tighten it 
down with the dowels not lined up, it may be bent...If it is bent, it will 
feel more difficult to install the tranny.(difficult to tighten the 
bolts)...If you find it is bent, a garage floor and a sledge hammer work 
fine to fix it.
