Hope it's okay to ask this question here since it's LT4 related....I have a CT5-V Blackwing 6 speed manual and I am experiencing engine hesitation/porpoising as the engine is coming up to temperature. It happens in 2nd, 3rd and 4th gears in the 2k to 2.5k rpm range and it's quite obvious. Dealer had the car for a week and claimed they could not feel it. I am hearing this might be normal for the LT4 but it does not feel normal to me. Have any of you experienced this with the V3? There is no info yet on the BW forums on this issue hence I am checking here. Thanks in advance!

Maybe it is the factory torque management programming in the ECU, limiting power while warming up to protect things from breaking.
Yeah I usually let the car idle for a min or so before driving off...this morning I let it idle a bit longer before driving off and did not experience the issue...
