What kind of noise was your Kenne Bell making? I had a built short block put in the same time as my KB and noticed a new noise when I first drove it. Chalked it up to piston slap on the built motor, but upon listening under the hood found out it was coming from the KB. When I put a tighter belt on the KB (changed upper pulley) most of the noise went away. Let me know what you found out on yours.

It went away as soon as I got over 100 rpms.

Don what is your vacumn at idle? If you don't think its your cams it could be your by pass not functioning properly. Works 140 with out by pass was like 3 inches of vacumn at idle (brake issues) with by pass is about 14 (no problems).

It is hard to describe, but it was sorta like a clunking niose, but only when at idle.

Example:
A perfect vacuum would be one in which the absolute pressure would be zero (in any units).
That would normally occur when the amount of vacuum was 29.92 inches of mercury (meaning that the absolute pressure was 29.92 inches of mercury below the ambient atmospheric pressure).
Just for your information, 29.92 inches of mercury is equivalent to 760 millimeters of mercury or 14.696 pounds per square inch.

I would be willing to bet that its not from the blower, but from the big cams.
big cams = very little vaccum..
The blower should have nothing to do with it.
