Well first problem is the battery was dead (unrelated) . Someone had obviously opened up the glove box and had forgotten to shut it. Well the battery is now dead enough where its not taking a full charge so I need to get a new battery tomorrow. Anyhow, started her up to try and recharge the battery and was looking around and noticed when I put my hand by the exhaust collector I felt exhaust. So it looks like the problem is just an exhaust leak that is making some real weird noise like a steam engine. I didnt get a chance to see if its just the donut or if the header/manifold has a hole in it but will look tomorrow. All my worrying and its looking to be this simple . Knock on wood thats all it is, I'll let you all know this weekend some time .

Tim,
I sure hope that it is just a hole in the exhaust. That would be a lot easier than what you had first suspected.

Tim,
Did you get the 5.0 fixed this weekend or did you gaff it off.
