Oh jeez, sounds like the transmission. But just to be safe, he'd better replace the crankshaft too.

I'm not an expert, but you might try looking at the obvious problems first like the torque converter bolts being loose. Tighten to spec with Loc-Tite.
If you have a definite knock, that is bad news. IMHO I would track it down or make the shop who did the work help out. At the least, I would inform the shop about the problem and guage the response. Good luck, Matt

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
