I have a noise coming from my engine bay. I have done a total engine rebuild, new everything. I bled the lifters and it has 272 kelfords. a full build valvetrain.

It has great oil pressure. Can someone give me some insight on what this noise is? I only ran it for maybe 20 seconds

Your video doesn't work.


Does it sound like noise coming from the head, like really bad lifter tick, or it sounds like a really loud sewing machine? Lifters take a bit to pump up, more then 20 seconds of running.

I put a video of it. I only ran it for about 5-10 seconds cause of a leak but it startd alot then went slower. It definitely sounds like its in the head

I'm not sure, I've only uploaded to youtube then copied the link here.


If the noise started a lot, and then started going away, and definitely sounds like its in the head, I'm 99.99% sure its just noise from the lifters not being pumped up. They make A LOT of noise when they've been bled. Let it idle for a few more minutes, then take it for an easy drive around the block. Listen closely to make sure the noise doesn't start getting worse again, or in case a new noise develops.
