    Hood prop delete

    I tried doing a search but I couldn't find it. Didn't someone make a kit that allowed you to use gas charged struts instead of the prop rod to hold up the hood?

    Exhaust leak maybe?

    Ahh, I see them now. Neat idea actually, putting them inline with the injectors. Anywho, I have narrowed it down to the passenger bank. I still can't tell where it's coming from though. When it's at idle and I rev it all I hear is the CHUUH of the throttle from my air intake. I only hear it...

    Exhaust leak maybe?

    I know what it sounds like now. It sounds like you're cracking a beer open at 1700 rpm and it ticks until about 2100 rpm.

    Exhaust leak maybe?

    yeah, it's really strange. The noise changes with the weather and temperature of the engine too. Sometimes it sounds like a hiss sometimes it sounds like a tick. I've boiled it down to exhaust or ignition though. Oh, am I retarded because I don't see the coils or plugs? Or are they under...

    Gears+Nitrous=?

    I concur, 4.10s. I drive 4.10s and still get 21mpg and my driving style is rather "spirited" :rolleyes:

    Longtubes and X-pipe should just bump you over.

    How to beat a modified LS1

    Compared with my car, all you've really got is the differential/axels, longtubes, and the N20 right? Hmmm, gives me something to hope for :D:D:D:D *starts saving for zex/nx :D*

    Exhaust leak maybe?

    Don't think that's a good thing to do while the car is moving :p It only does it under load. I have a stethoscope for that anyways :)

    Bueller? :shrug:

    Exhaust leak maybe?

    At about 1700RPM, and only on slight accelleration, my car has either a click or a hiss. It sounds like a combination of valve chatter and a vacuum leak. It goes away the more you hit the gas. If you punch it you can't hear it at all. But on those 4th gear 35-45mph slow accels you can really...

    4.10 Auto Guys, have a Question

    I haven't changed the fluid yet. When I do I will use royal purple though.

    4.10 Auto Guys, have a Question

    Not if you use Royal Purple. It's SUPPOSED to free up loss due to friction. Worth a shot :shrug:

    4.6L vs LT1/LS1

    I'd rather an 04 'bra for around the same price :shrug: It's nice, but it's overweight at almost 2 tons(3800 lbs) I have a feeling the cobra'd eat it. It's not bad though, I'd drive it if someone gave it to me :D I still hold true that my favorite late model pontiac is the WS6 bird, plain and...
