Default 3 weird noises after motor swap

ok so i just got done with my motor swap and now im hearing these three fucked up noises....

one of the noises happens when i first take off between 1-3000 RPM... its like a swish-swish-swish-swish-swish-swish noise.. is it because i dont have the flywheel inspection plate on? or what.....

the second noise comes at take off too, its a clunk... not a loud clunk but louder than a click.... its just RIGHT when i take off i looked at my tie rod bushings ( i think thats what its called...((its the joint that connects the whole wheel assembly to the steering rod thing))) anyways, thats like bleeding some red lube... is that the problem? or what is it...

the third one sounds like its coming from my driver side shock/spring... im running KYB adjustable shocks with sprint springs... whenever i hit a bump or go around a sharp right turn... its got that swish noise again... i dont think i heard it before i did the swap but now im hearing it.. is it the strut assembly? or something else?

my car doesnt have any wheel hop if that helps.. and i just got new axles... im running 17's so i dont know if its just putting stress on the tranny or what

thanks....

Lol...17's, ha thats funny cause those make you'r little car look like its's not really moving, plus i wouldn't recommend anything bigger then 15's on a real race crx/civic. Considering also that 16's or higher will thrash on your tranny and suspension of course, sorry to say bud "obviously".
