Well that didn't work. I don't think it would be a rod knock since it's not getting louder but I could be wrong.

I'm way out in anaheim. I pulled the drivers side valve cover already and haven't gotten around to monkey with the pass side. I think ill just get an upper intake gasket and do it that way. I hear its a pain in the but to try and do it with it on. Thanks for your reply ill check the flex plate.

Any luck on the flex plate? Also buy an intake plenum gasket, it's worth looking under that other valve cover.

It does sound awful in that video. I was also going to suggest the flex plate. Real easy way to check is it goes away when you put it in gear.greaslife wrote:For got. Check the flex plate too see if its cracked it will sound the same as a rod. I don't think it's a rod
