hi guys,
i just started up my new 355, it has a gm 847 cam, lloyd elloit heads, 1.5cc rockers, new pushrods, comp r's, stock rods stock crank, speed pro pistons.
i started the car up to break it in and i have some major concerns,
first off : car holds an idel and i only have code 16, my o2 read fine and i have a good tune for the car, i'm getting a very small knocking noise from the engine but i cant tell where, or why its there.when i drained the oil everything looked fine... some metal on the top, but nothing that would pick up with a magnet.
secondly: i dont have any knock retard showing... even at 3k... i havent reved past that yet, but i'm wondering if the knock i'm hearing is the rockers... i havent adjusted them totally... but the noise i herd was different than a tick... wouldnt the KS pick up a knock?
can anyone come out to hear the engine..i'll pay yea for your help
