right, we just put new valves and followers in my engine, had it all timed up by ex janspeed mechanic and fired it up and still tapping - thought yeah needs to bed in and get pressure up, but its up to full operating temp now and still tapping what else can it be?________________________________________ 205 XU10J4RS by PUG1OFF 236.4 BHP at Northampton Motorsport.Lets Race! |

yeah seats recut, thats the only thing i can think of that could still be bedding in. The guides were left alone this time. followers were high end aftermarket ones. but shouldnt give any noise still. ________________________________________ 205 XU10J4RS by PUG1OFF 236.4 BHP at Northampton Motorsport.Lets Race! |

It may be the case that when the head was refitted you have caught a couple of the valves, have seen this no end of times and its a case of the owner or mechanic nearly crying.It looks like you will need to remove the head again fella.
