One other thing glock. Check to make sure the precats are not falling apart. They can make some silly noises too.
I can respond for him on this one. (he probably getting some racing fuel) LT-1's don't have "precats". Glock'94's car has NO CATS at the present time! :D

There was an article in a recent Corvette Fever about a flex plate sounding like a "knock". It had appearently been driving the owner crazy. Someone spotted the crack in the surface of the plate.

They also had an article on replacing it.

Hmm.. it wasn't cracked when we redid the motor. However, when we were testing the torque converter for vibration by unbolting it from the flext plate, the flexplate did bang the converter hard once.

I guess I'll have to take the dust cover off to inspect it for that.
