my engine revved way high on a tailwhip I did just now testing out this new chip i just got. It was only there for about 5 seconds at the most, WHAT affect do you think this wil have? Is my engine knocking now. It doesn't sound like it is! there's this small ticking but that's been there since I got the car. I run Mobil 1 5000 mile 5w30 motor oil and my engine is an stock 89 L98 350 TPI!

 

Just because you punched to a high RPM doesnt mean you
automatically hurt the motor.

I will tell you what the guys on the forum told me when my
motor knocked last summer (spun bearing)

locate where the noise is comming from.. Is it comming from
the top of the engine? or the Bottom ??

If its untop of the engine, its valvetain or normal ticking..
Our motors always "tick" its the fuel Injectors ..

you can avoid alot of trouble just by knowing where
the sound comes from..



Good luck

 

thank you I don'r think I hurt anything cause i dont feel a loss in power

 

like I said, you can confirm this by locating the noise

 

floating your valves is caused by over reving but you would know if you did in fact float them.
