    5.7 Timing Belt questions

    Soo a buddy of mine has a Honda CRV and broke a timing belt. No biggie I tell him. We will have it fixed in a few hours. Then I find out he has an interference engine and more than likely bent the living hell out of the valves. Then I thought to myself, "Oh sh*t, I have 100,000 on my 5.7 Hemi"...

    Excessive whining noise from amp

    You know what I'm talking about... that awful whining/excess noise that gets worse when you step on the gas. I've routed all the speakers wires as far away from the amp power/ground as I could. Is there any way or device that can eliminate or decrease this noise?
