Does your car sound like this?
This stingray sounds exactly like my car when I give light revs and hold. Could anyone check if their LT1 makes this same noise, and maybe even post a short clip of light, held revs if possible so i can confirm and put my nerves to rest if in fact it IS normal. I heard its loud injectors or something like that. I have a 2018 1LE for about a month with little under 1500 miles. First video is my own car, second video is the stingray. Mine starts being more obvious at about 58 seconds in, the corvette is obvious from the moment he starts holding his revs

Does your car sound like this while also cruising? |

You have the mic so close to the engine, it sounds worse than it is. I don't hear any metallic tapping noise to be concerned about. Drive the car and enjoy it. These are not quiet engines.

Not the same engine, but applicable as an illustration. This is the tapping noise you DON'T want to hear after the engine has warmed up. it is ok on cold startup as long as it disappears soon after from what I've researched:

That's why I uploaded the one from the vette, its the same noise but more distinct. And its not a metallic noise its a very rapid tic/rattle

I heard the high pressure fuel pump has a role in this, im not a mechanic, but is that the same as the direct injection?

Lol that's why I got rid of my coyote. I hope if that's your car, you get that figured out.

I'd place my bet on injectors. Normal.
