Well, no I'm not dumb and yes I searched lol.
Ok, here is my question. My car is not in bad shape or is the engine in bad shape. I have a question. When I push the gas and let of real quick like it sounds like something is rattling. I took off the head sheild around the catylitic converter and it still rattles. My dad, he is a mechanic, suggested over the phone that it is probally the cover for the exhaust manifold. If so, is it safe to leave it off until I get a new header?
Thanks,
Lucas

that could well be, but i'd take it off, and take the car for a drive and see if thats it. The head shield is there for a reason, and with stock headers you should definately keep in there. I myself put in Hotshot Headers, so I took it off. But for stock use, I wouldn't reccommend keeping it off.
Make sure to solve the problem.

Thanks for the heat wrap idea . Another question is that if I remove the insulation type thing underneath the hood will it affect the heat of the engine? Or is it just to muffle the sound?

I have a question.
i have a 90' 240 fastback. its been sitting for about 2 years.
when i rev the engine to 5000rpms it makes a rattle sound near the fire wall and engine.....
any suggestions of what it may be?
i suspect its the motor mounts. if it is how much do think it will cost?
does anyone have a suggestion on an engine swap place in the ti-state area as well??? & paint job shop so i can do at the same time??
