Default ok im back n real power n have questions lol

i jus got me a 93 gt vert tonight kid got it off of said motor been rebuilt with c4 auto with shift kit and 2000 stahl with 3.55 gears and said had e303 cam cold air intake and msd cap and bbk shorties with h pipe and flowmaster 40s has alimater for smog and ac. the car runs damn good and is pretty quick if manually shift it . but jus leave in drive jus acts like much isnt there . also has hell of a vibration to it . he said that the guy who rebuilt it said fly wheel has to many wieghts on it or something is that possable ? and i noticed also its not very good car for interstate driving lol . im jus lookin for more power from dead stop in low 1 hammerin it wont even turn tires over and i figured if motor had sht done to it should do that pretty easy . but guess tires are like new 17inch on chrome cobra r's .

Ya it has the wrong flexplate on it and it will vibrate badly enough to knock the main bearings out of it.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't an e-cam detrimental to an otherwise stock block?

It sounds weak if won't turn tires over. My old 93 with a aod would catch second. It was a bone stock car.

From a dead stop and nailing it wouldn't his 2000k stall eliminate any wheelspin? That's what I was referring to...

I wouldn't think so. It is in first gear and it is just 2000 rpm.

If the guy who built it put the wrong flexplate on it and KNOWS it that should tell you right there what kind of build it was. #1 the assembly wasn't balanced so it was a thrown together job. #2 if that thing won't break the tires loose there are some serious issues with either parts selection or tuning. #3 the guy that sold it to you had his fill of it handed it off. Id yank the engine out and take it to someone and have them run through it. If he put the wrong flexplate or balancer on it that speaks volumes on what was done on the internals.

is there like a cerain flywheel i should get or hermonic balancer ? i know the car wont spin tires wich is kinda a good thing cuz saves me from burning em off lol . but it will launch pretty damn good . but according to my factory tack 60mph is bout 3000 rpm does that sound right for 3.55 gears ? i had to drive it on interestate to get it home and wow that sucked . im thinkin bout maybe jus finding a stock rear end for now to throw in it or maybe another aod . but 1rst thing tho wantin to get motor fully tuned and running like it should . my next goal is get set gt40 heads off a explorer or something and maybe trick flow intake .
