OK stupid question here, is it a squeaking sound or more of a rattling sound? My LS1 has always had this sorta rattle click sound that tends to go away once it's warm. Hasn't effected performance and heard other LS1s with the same noise, always wondered what it was.

- if that is the case, you either have too long or too short of a belt...
if its in the middle, start the car and watch the tensioner to see if it is banging against one side or the other... if this is the case, the spring in the tensioner is weak and needs to be replaced..
