Default rattling sound..under the hood...

gosh... sounds like you car is possibly pinging... but I'm really surprised it would be doing it with out fairly hard acceleration... Might want to try putting in higher octane gas and see if that changes things... or pull some timing out with your Predator... hmmm...
