Do the SX Viper Engines sound metalic?


Went for a ride lastnight and I was very attentive to what noises / sounds my engine makes when idling aspecially from cold start.
. In my case even with my ears only a foot away, I have absolutely no metalic noises coming from my engine at idle.

Mine also sounded like that prior to fixing one of my power valves. The cable pulled through and it was not functioning. Bought a new valve and everything sounds better.
 
I'm gonna look at the manifold. I'm still working on it. I'm getting the engine mount fixed right now. I'll update when I figure something out.
 
Just one side huh? I would also look inside the manifold as well. Cracks could be starting from the inside out just a thought. I would put a weld in all 4 joints.
 
I think I'm going to add a couple of bolts to it. There is two more locations. That should do the same thing as what you're suggesting.
