Some news here!

SAAB motorcorporation in Sweden are the main dealers of Chevrolete.
I spoke to a very high ranking civil-engineer at Saab-Chevy and he told me that piston-slap, too small pistons etc are very common amongst high-performance cars, V8, V6 etc. Even the new super expensive Mercedes 500 have got it. Differance is Mercedes have been clever enough to conceal the noise by building a thick cover above all, theyre not so tight-fisted with money perhaps.
