Also, a 1" square tube piece can be used for BumpStop Extensions. I have some little pieces of plate for this as well.

My thought was more like this:

I'm thinking of replacing the coil pack, getting an oil change, and adding Lucas to see what happens.I just don't want to spend money on one thing and then it be something else. Nobody has done anything but lifted the hood and listened to the noise. You can hear it when you start and when you give it gas, it gets even louder. My daughter is going to record the noise for me to post.

If you just want bumstop EXTENSIONS (1x1 square tube)...I can make those with materials on hand.
