My 14 year and I are restoring a 77' Firebird with a 350 (Not by me). It's his car to drive when he turns 16 so I'm pretty excited that's what he chose to drive and paid for half. However, being an excited 14 year old he ripped out the dash and wiring because several items wasn't working to...

Hey guys, so I'm not sure if this has been discussed/resolved before but I've got a slight annoyance with my 1997 Firebird Formula. It seems whenever I'm in 1st, 2nd, and sometimes 3rd gear but particularly low RPM (>1500), there's like this rattling/grinding noise as I accelerate even a little...
