damn.. sorry to hear that Don. Guess that means you'll have to do an engine swap.

[JoeliusZ28]

ouch, poor thing

[wezeles]

ya doesnt sound good cant really tell unless i was there but kinda sounds like you dropped a bottom bearing or something... not fun at all... have to dig to find it... i hate that sound

[1fstss]

its a common sound with that car

[SS4Matt]

that sucks, but at the same time it presents the opportunity to "fix it better" mine as well do a little something extra while you're diggin to find that problem....sucks though, sorry

[DETROITMUSCLE]

Definatly sucks man, hopefully you'll get some more modding done though while its apart.

[1fstss]

stock rebuild in the SS, i have the Z to build the hell out of

[wasjo6431]

it kind of sounds like a rocker to me or a lifter.

but then again id idnt hear it when u got on the gas tape it agian but give it gas

[1bad83ta]

if its something in the heads that won't be that big of a problem but if its bearings or a rod knock...

That sux dude.

[wasjo6431]

it kinda sounds like top end to me. but i cant tell without actually hearing it rev up.

You know what would fix the problem? You could give ME your car!

[SS4Matt]

06camarodudeYou know what would fix the problem? You could give ME your car!

that wouldn't fix the problem...it would just give you the problem!! haha.... broken motor stuff sucks!....if it is in the heads somewhere. that'll be a hell of a lot less work then anything in the bottom end

[1fstss]

it sounds too solid to be a valvetrain issue, im prety sure its a rod bearing. but listening to the exhaust it still sounds aggressive as heck!!!

[wasjo6431]
