Do you mean the clack clack noise? I thought it was normal for an LS1??? May need a rebuild? I had a LS1 while ago which was worse

Ls1's are noisy, my old one sounded like that, it had worn off the hardening on the cam and eventually one day just got really loud, it had turned the lifter into a flat tappet one and made a square roller. Be warned ! What's the motor in the torana ?
