Simple video request
 
I need a video of a used (preferably) 370Z idling. Hood popped would be nice. Im not looking for exhaust noise here, Im looking for valve train noise. Also, warmed up - not a cold start. I think the best conditions would be after a decent drive.

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 :)

I could take some video of my junk if you want but it'll have to be tomorrow when I wake up for work to get the video made... shrug.. My car's not necessary used used.. just over 1k miles.. let me know if you want a vid.

+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.
