I've gotten a whole lot of good info so far and really appreciate it, So's hear is another one. I've got a 5.7 in a 14 and during a hard accel I get a really loud whistling. Any ideas. Sounds like the pass side. Thankz in advance.

Buy some Blue Painters Tape
Wrap the mirror in the area where it hinges
Then place tape over the door seams
Then drive it
If it does not whistle, remove the tape from around the door seams in 2 foot sections & drive in again , then rip off 2 more feet, etc. until it whistles again

Does the whistle correlate to speed or engine RPM. If it's engine RPM, the first two things I think of is vacuum leak or idler pulley bearing.
