would have gotten better one but my camera is dead and charging so i had to do with my cell phone

Alright what you do next is take your serpentine belt off.

Start your engine again.

If the sound is still there, you'll need to invest in another engine or rebuild the one in there now.

It would also be a great time to do a 383 engine swap.

 

[texaschevyryder]

which belt is the serpentine belt is dat the one at the front of the engine how to take off and replace the belt

 

[Sepiroth]

IIRC there is only one belt on your engine. You'll need to relase the tension of the belt tensioner to give the belt enough slack to pull it off .

I wanna say a 3/8in ratchet end will work in the hole. If not, youll need to use a 1/2in ratchet to release the tension.

Also, have you checked your oil level?

 

[jmildoc]

check your oil!!! Also my car did that same sort of noise one time and I thought it was a rod or something and it ended up being the pipe on the EGR valve was broken... so check out your egr too...

[Sepiroth]

No visual aid. But your tensioner is under your alternator.

I hate to type it, but I think your engine gave up the ghost.

Sepiroth..... did you see my intake... I think I got it from the same people as you it came in the same box as yours......... Check out my pics..... That filter is HUGE!!! Huh

 

[Sepiroth]

Yea man, with the 383, you can use your same tranny.

 

[texaschevyryder]

[Sepiroth]

Hi-jack

Sepiroth..... did you see my intake... I think I got it from the same people as you it came in the same box as yours......... Check out my pics..... That filter is HUGE!!! Huh

I cant find your thread on it. lol. Yea the filter is huge! How are you enjoying it?

Did you too find the instructions a bit less than desired?

I havent had a chance to fill up. I'm at half tank so maybe tomorrow, I top off again and check MPG's.
