    97 GTP 170xxx miles a couple days ago the engine developed a tick, consistent, constant and increased with rpm I assumed valve guides? now when I turn it off after driving it it has a griding "spool down" now. JW if there related and what is my next step? I have a rock and a hard place here it is my daily driver, I do have fun with it, regular oil changes and 91 octane is the highest I can get in cali

    Its hard to tell from that video, but my guess would be the fans. Another shot in the dark would be a pulley/ belt.

    1 hamster power. What's that equate to in horsepower?

    The hamster cage sound could possibly the electric fans spinning down after engine shut off.
