My car is bone stock. The sound IS NOT COMING FROM THE ENGINE. I have explored every thing that would be easy to fix . I am just looking for answers to what besides the torque converter clutch in my TRANS would cause the whining as I am not to familiar with this transmission. I have worked on , rebuilt , and changed a lot of transmission but I have not worked with this engine/trans combo... As I posted in an earlier comment I think it is a bearing of some sort because it only makes the whine in drive , under a load. In neutral or park no noise. The whine starts while driving under normal conditions at about 28 mph and continues until I stop the car or put it neutral.....
