[Chevelle-list] Engine noise!

[Pelle Andersson]

A sticky lifter could explain why it's running colder on #8!?
Maybe we're on to something here :-)

  Sounds like either an exhaust leak or a sticky lifter to me.  My $.02

  Hi!



  I have this strange noise during acceleration!

  Sounds a little bit like a bolt tapping my M/T aluminum valve covers but a tad sharper!

  No marks in the valve covers indicating that anything is hitting them!

  I’ve tried to adjust timing back & forth 16-8 degrees but it’s still the same!

  It’s in sync with the rpm & I can only hear it when accelerating hard!



  Any ideas?

  Pelle
