Hi to all
Im another poster boy of bad luck
I have a ticking noise that occures when engine reaches operating temp (160 deg). Have a listen here..

FYI cold idle..

This is a fresh rebuilt engine with less than 400-500 easy driven mi. @ 5# or less( just about finished 3rd tank of 94) I just boosted it to 15-16# and all ok as a test.
Through process of elimination , Im 99.9% sure its in the engine.
Previous owner had this quirk also prior to rebuild but was expected to be cleared up after the machinist and mechanics did there thing. The motor is built for 10s in mind. All people involved are reputable and experienced with high HP LC2 's ( friends of many in this community) , however they are baffled too.
Anyone have similar experience or ideas what to look for when this lemon is pulled?
Thanks in advance
Steve
