I videod mine too, zero blow by and zero metalic noise...this is all after an entire season of running 12.0's@113 weighing 7000lbs and an entire season of dynoing over 750 horse haha.
Video picks up alot of wind from the fan.
Noise sounds pretty normal from a phone. The blow by is definitely not normal. Did you have the heads pressure tested for cracks? I think you do have a problem. Keep a good eye on coolant levels and look for moisture indicators in your oil.
I have that same noise in mine with the oil cap off too. And I've heard it in others. Blow by does look excessive to me too. Sure your pcv isn't blocked or kinked somewhere?
Hmmm interesting input here guys. Nice to get different perspectives. My reroute hose does have a filter on it like an old school valve cover filter deal. Yea heads were checked. Hmm ill check that fikter out on it. Im gonna pull my buddies d max fill plugs off an inspect for comparison. Btw theres no pressure coming out of that fill tube. Just that smoke. And it is cold outside.
Yes take that filter off your pcv line. Mine clogged up and did the EXACT same thing. I had one of the small filters and it ended up clogging up and I couldn't figure out what it was until I started thinking about the filter. Popped it off and boom! Fixed it. Lol.
The noise has me really concerned now. My buddies trucks didn't do it but theirs are lbz and lmm. And their engines were cold. Im gonna have to find an lly.
Sounds like somethong rubbing in the front cover. Blow by and haze dont bother me, my lmm did that too untill I took the filter off my pcv reroute as well. Plus my lmm would haze at idle when cold or real hot, I think its tuning related...
Oh i dont know i wasn't sure if you watched the vid or not, sounds exactly like a serp belt pulley though which makes me nervous cause we know what that noise is haha
Get a long ass pry bar, screw driver or an actual stethoscope and put one end on the water pump cover and the other to your ear. I have a feeling you will hear the noise worse overall right there. Some of these new pumps don't have the correct gear mesh and make a nasty noise like you posted. Mine did this and gasuout had this as well as others. Listening to it will tell you right away
