  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    Good to set you're back Chris.

    As Michael said do the belt thing one at a time and see where that goes before trying anything else. I did have pushrods squeak sorta like that but they weren't getting enough oil but on a bunch of them, not a single source noise the way yours sounds.

    What does it do when you rev it up?

    Good morning, and God Bless.

    I haven't Reved the 455 yet ... Mr. Weise suggested that I get the 455 to Normal Operating Temperature, then Rev the Motor a bit ... in a video.
    I plan on doing that on Monday.


    Thanks VERY much for your reply.

    Good morning all, and God Bless you and your Family.

    Mr. Mike Pesarchick (No_Lift) is already aware of this; it's currently in Build-Process ... waiting on the TA Performance SPX Intake Manifold to be Machined and shipped to Mr. Weise at Tri-Shield Performance.

    God Bless you, and I sincerely appreciate your reply and help. The Engine Noise did get worse.

    I'm going to allow the 455 to get to Normal Operating Temp, and Rev it a bit in a video. Mr. Jim Weise suggested that.

    In the video it does sound like it is one of those pullies there has a bad bearing yeah pull each belt off to check.
    It does have that same sound like the flywheel is cracked it is the same sound mine had a long time ago. Do you have the stock flexplate on there? It could be cracked so check that out too. I think the motor is ok sounds good!

    Stage 2 Torque himself has not been on the site since October 14 of 2023.I was active with him in getting some of the parts he was needing early on, as I was parting out a 1987 Regal Limited that had a tree fall on it during one of the hurricanes.
