is this with the windows up? it's possible the hood could do it in some strange an one off way, but i doubt it. the hood is smooth right? in otherwords no raised edges or anything abnormal?

if it's making a noise with the windows all the way down then it sounds like you have a problem. otherwise your windows aren't aligned properly. good luck.

well yeah i have this exact sound. its actually more of a sucking sound, as my car is carbed with the big block hood and an open air element. you can hear the carb suckin in the air and it gets louder the harder i get on it. its pretty neat i think
