Okay...just about 5 minutes ago I went to about 3/4 throttle for the first time ever since I got the 426 back. And whenever I did, it made this weird high pitched noise...it got louder once I got up to around 3/4 throttle so I just let off...then I slowed down, pulled the clutch in, and let it out and i heard it a little when I let my clutch out but I kept it at about 1/2 throttle and i didn't hear it. I have no idea what the heck it is and it scared the crap out of me. it got verry loud very quickly....

Please help me here guys.

Whatever it is, it doesn't sound like its a good thing. Sorry I can't help you out. But I see that your from pittsbugh area. I was wondering if you knew of any good tracks aroudn the area. I live around Butler, and the only tracks I know of are switchback and Iron valley.

ok good, most likely you were correct, get some HD studs and some new gaskets, hopefully you wont end up too bad.
