The weights attached to your torque converter are there to balance it, much like the balance weights on your wheels & tires. If you knock them off, you unbalance the converter and ruin it. If you drive a car with an unbalanced torque converter it will shake worse than it would if you removed the balance weights from all four wheels and drove on the freeway at 70 mph.
