I checked the pentosin level, replaced the belt, roller and tensioner bearings, the A/O (which made got rid of 95% of the problem) yet there is still a intermittent chirp. Sounds cheap and ruins the new lower header octave. It seems to accelerate when the car does then I lose track of it in the other engine noise. I'm used to a power steering pump squeaking in a long rotational sounding squeal. This is like staccato notes, oh and if it matters one of the valves is ticking which is normal for my car when first out for spring. Could it be the rear engine mount on that side?
