1991 moan from lower end

[shadownos4]

I have a 1991 SHO that I rescued from sitting in a guys barn for 3 years and dieing a slow rusty death. I have just finished the 60k and replacing anything I could get my hands on. I just put it back together last night and started her up and she runs smooth and I am just itching to drive it, but I noticed a whine-moan which sounds like its comming from the lower end. I did not replace the bearings or oil pump, but there is no oil light and it is pumping oil. I am hopeful that someone has a idea and can help me, I don't now if it is just from being in stasis for three years and just needs to be ran.

Sounds like a little test drive may be in order. It's probably rusty accessory pulley bearings.

Try checking the power steering fluid level.

If you put the timing belt tensoiner on wrong or too tight that will make the same noise had a 91 sho plus do the same to me

Thanks guys I am going to driver her for a while and se how that goes and if not I will check the tensioner, because that is the general area I think it is coming from.
