Hoping someone can confirm my suspisions...
Towards the middle of last summer, my '87 GT developed a very annoying rattle that sounded like it was coming from the exhaust. It's very loud when the car is cold and quiets down a bit when the car is warmed up but it never completely goes away. At first, I thought there was something loose, but that idea went out the window because I replaced the clutch towards the end of the summer and the sound never changed after the exhaust was put back together. I am thinking the sound is coming from my BBK (junk) H-Pipe with cats. Could something be rattling inside one of the converters?
Here's a link to the sound. Rattling Sound
Let me know what you think it could be. I'm ready to buy an X-Pipe with cats (probably from Bassani this time), but I'd rather not spend the $$ if it is not the problem.
