[QUOTE="01yellercobra, post: 17024987, member: 35549"] I blew the cats out on my Bassani mid pipe. I've seen more issues with aftermarket cats than stockers. That kind of sounds like how the main tensioner acted in my 01 when it started going out. I could hear it at part throttle and idle, but not at WOT. Of course at WOT I couldn't hear much of anything on that car. But I could definitely tell it was coming from the front of the engine. You can check the rod bearing by pulling the COP for each cylinder. I haven't done this myself, but supposedly without the pressure on the piston it'll get quiet(er). I don't know of any way to foolproof check the lash adjusters. So maybe just plan on replacing those when you replace the seals. [/QUOTE]
