Any takers think they could hook me up? Im just looking to compare and see if I have excessive, or normal valvetrain chatter at idle. I first noticed it at a drive thru the other day. Hard to describe, but imagine whispering "shum shum shum" 2 or 3 times per second.

Thanks if anyone can help

+1 rep for making me laugh at my first day back at work.

Thanks guys, no video needed I suppose. I just never caught it until I was right next to a wall with the window open I suppose haha. Besides, its ok - the LS1 valvetrain sounded like a sewing machine on crack.
