The saw sound is probably your cooling fan. When the clutch starts slipping, it allows the thing to spin too fast, with the RPMs of the car. If it sounds a little more like a tornado....then its definately your fan clutch.

hm so.....it should put too much of a dent into my wallet...

Most of the people here in the forum just convert to an electric fan, and get rid of their stock fan. I believe that frees up around 5 horsepower, from what I have read. I am sure someone else will post how to complete the swap from stock fan to electric fan. Good luck.

I was overdrawing my alt when I first installed my electric fan. It made a horrible grinding noise once when I started it up. (not the starter, happened a few seconds after starting)

But never did it again
