Help Diagnosing Sound
A&A Ti-trim stock ls6...
Motor starts and runs with constant slap sound. Blowby rolling out of dipstick tube if removed. Reving motor leads to backfires and popping. Power loss. Exhaust ironically looks normal.
I am guessing a ring let go.
What about anything else, like a lifter or valve issue?
Any good way to know without removing the motor? What about just removing the heads?
