1) I know there were some alignment issues with GM starters.

2) I've seen the center broken out or flex-plates. Everything appeared normal until dis-assembled.

3) Did the torque convertor get seated properly? May be an issue with your front pump.
When I get a chance I will check to see if the starter is getting hung up. I'm hoping that is the problem.

What are the symptoms of a spun bearing either then grinding/squealing?

I havent checked the flex plate yet. that would require removing the transmission.

When you say front pump? Do you mean the water pump? I disconnected the belt from the motor and turned it over to the same sounds.
