Is my engine blown?

Blew the welds on the intake with that hundred shot of nos.

That was a 75er, GOD ULTRA CANT YOU READ?! lol

But in all seriousness; sounds incredibly close to the valves. So either header leak (not torqued down properly or cracked), or the head gasket is blown.

It seemed to rev too freely for burnt valves.

That's a cracked header. Too big for a loose flange at the port. You would also hear two pops.

There, I said it.

Hopefully its not a blown head gasket. I should be able to find out tonight or tomorrow what is wrong. Thanks for all the help.

Blown head gasket has a tell tale white smoke, I agree with everyone, sounds like exhaust.

Then why the fuck are you in this thread? Fix the KNOWN PROBLEM then come back. Of course that's the problem and it may have started new issues.

Fuck me. I missed that part too.

Here is an update. Pretty sure its an exhaust leak in missing 2 header bolts one on the drivers side one on the passenger side. Ill know for sure in just a little bit when I start my car and underneath it.

Unrelated but I notice an oil leak coming from what I think is my exhaust vvt housing. Shown at the end of the video.

Let me just jot down that VIN. What did you say it was?

At 20 seconds you can CLEARLY see that your header is missing a bolt, fix that or just get ride of that 1320 header, they're garbage IMHO.

just done under the car and its an exhaust leak out of where the bolt is missing. I noticed the bolts gone. I posted the video for oil leak I found.

Fixing the exhaust didn't fix the issue any other ideas?

Start car while securely on jackstands

Check every inch of pipe in header, joints between header/OP/Mid pipe

Keep wedding tackle away from moving parts

If confirmed not exhaust, then confirm the noise is coming from engine

Long screwdriver with metal tip on engine/parts and your ear on the handle makes an expedient mechanics stethoscope to see where the noise is loudest

Injectors are loud, cold engines are loud, an overpipe resting on the subframe is hell

Check everything you possibly can and report back

well you could take it to the dealer and get your front cover resealed and while its off they can see if your dowel pin fell out on the chain tensioner guide.. plus your oil leak is fixed. or you could drop the oil pan and see if the pin is in the pan...
