So for a bit now, my SS has a strange noise when I accelerate from low rpms, and it disappears once rpms are up above a certain range. It sounds like it’s coming from the driver’s side firewall area.

I disconnected the sound tube, but that had no affect.

I think it may be the heat shield over the exhaust manifold on the driver’s side. Has anyone else ever had a similar issue and found this to be it? Anyth8ng else to look at/for?
