01 "Surging 1800 to 2100 r.p.m"..Help?

My 2001 cummins is giving me trouble again!

Two weeks ago we put 50hp injectors in this girl,because of a miss I was having. That took care of the miss(note:also had harmonic balancer break,WOW never seen that before i posted pictures so everyone could see).

With all that fixed and up and running again late last week. I started to notice
a surge in the motor, tach shows just a slite hesitation about 1800 r.p.m to 2200 r.p.m. After that she runs out good.

Its like driving into a real strong head wind!

I have a scheduled flow test for next week for this girl, but I'm not shore that will tell me anything? Does anyone have any ideas??????????Thanks for looking.

Could be feeling torque convertor locking and unlocking if your truck is automatic. Does RPM go up slighly when it happens?
