https://www.facebook.com/reel/1269485040416227 After 1 year and 35k later, the engine developed a knocking noise. At first I thought it might be the supercharger so I pulled it last weekend and examined/tested it. It seems fine and with the belt off the charger it's still making the noise. I pulled the flywheel cover off to make sure one of the bolts was not loose. I drained the oil and filtered it with a micro screen funnel and could not see anything odd metallically. It just started making the noise when I stepped out of the truck to check the mail and have not driven it since. When first started cold there is no noise for a few seconds, then random for a few seconds then the regular tapping starts. It has no skip at the exhaust that I can notice. I'm going to pull it this weekend and go back through the entire engine starting this weekend. On one hand it's extremely disappointing; on the other I guess I'm lucky something didn't fail under boosted WOT.
And BTW I know it's filthy! Lol!
