Low RPM shake/shudder and tone change Its a 96 z28 with p/p heads, 230/236 comp cam, 1.6rr, 30lb injectors, ported intake, tune, etc.
I was driving home from work today, about a 15 mile trip, and I was half way home and noticed my exhaust tone changed and didn't sound right and I had a low rpm shake or shudder. All my gauges were good the entire time, I checked my fluids when I got home and they were good. I did notice every time I turned the car on and off in the driveway when I got home, that I heard a rattle of some sort from the front of the engine.
My first thought was maybe my chain jumped a half tooth causing it to feel like its missing and having a different tone and also a loss of power. Not limp mode but not all there either.
I just wanna see what everyone says first before I go ahead ripping and tearing, even though I'll probably have to.
