Being that you have an LS1 it has the aluminum heads, and that is the vavles making that noise that you are hearing it is perfectly normal.

That's what I've been told. I've also been told the lifters have tendency to loose their prime.

00z28RSLS1: LT-1's have aluminum heads too and my lt-1's never made any noticable valve train noise.

Please do us all a favor and try and act like adults here. This site was not created to bash other people. This is a total disrepect towards the thread. What I really dont understand is how do you get any gratification trash talking someone hundreds of miles away, It just doesn't make and sense to me.

If any of you have a problem with another member just put that memeber on your ingnore list. It is very simple. Then all of their post/pm's will not show up. This will make them Invisible to you. If the problems still presist, please contact an Me or any moderator for help. Instigating the situation is only gonna make the problem worse and will cause the tread to be Locked or deleted.

For those who read this and Don't know what I am talking about, This thread got out of hand and I had to delete some post. Those of you know who you are, and what I am talking about. Don't let it happen again.

Sorry Roll for your thread getting stolen,


Thanks
