This clip is after a long drive and the car was hot. I started the car after waiting 60 minutes to let the lifters bleed down. It sounds worse now. I think it sounds like a truck. My wife thinks it's a tractor.

Yes it goes away when it warms up. The lifters are LS7 lifters. The lifters and buckets were replaced 16,000 kms ago in Dec 2021 when the new heads went on.

I've got stock rear mufflers. They won't kill all power.

I seem to have developed a noise on cold start.

Already run a plasma cutter off the 15 amp.

I've just renovated my garage with a full electrical rewire including 3 phase 5 pin plug for 22 Kw charging and a 1 phase 15 amp plug for 7 kw. Just for future proofing.

I was in Italy in October 2023. 5 weeks of museums, history, art, culture, beauty. We hired cars on 3 occasions and it was very easy driving in Italy. We had one true car day. Morning: Maserati factory tour Modena. We walked amongst the factory technicians hand assembling the Maserati MC20...

C'mon @crew chief tell the story of what happened. Did your 700hp torque monster twist the hell out of the driveshaft engineered for half that? Is that your 10.67?

I was not clear when i said "back to stock". I should have said that I reverted to the tune that was originally supplied by the auto rebuilder, Craig's Transmissions. I reverted to their original tune they provided for the 800hp build. They subsequently supplied a more drag race oriented tune...

It's almost 2 years to the day that I created this thread and picked up the car with the blower and other mods. The car has gone from stock to heavily modified. Since then, I've done 15,000 kms and blown a stack of cash (pun intended). I love driving the car at every single opportunity. The...
