[QUOTE="TRMN8RCRIS, post: 14626033, member: 168691"] Hmm it sure does sound similar to piston slap after watching those videos. I'm praying its not, it would be to bad to have to rebuild such a low mileage engine. I did a little bit of searching around, and read about the whole "why you shouldn't do 5-6th gear pulls on these motors" its too bad, before buying I did some research and read about how stout these engines are with their stock forged internals. Like I said before, it was after doing a 2nd to 4th gear pull when I noticed the noise. If it does end up being a burnt piston or spun rod bearing, I want to make sure I do this rebuild right to avoid this again. I'm thinking bore .020 over, aftermarket oversize pistons with lower ring walls, stock rods if I can, and same with the crankshaft with a polish. I want to keep this my daily with some power nothing crazy though. Any suggestions with head work? Should I try to find some revised 05 heads or just mod mine? Thanks again for the input fellas, the shop will let me know what happened tomorrow, I'll keep you guys posted! [/QUOTE]
