If i knew how to post videos on here i would. I took video of how it sounds. After i put new heads and intake on after about 75 miles my oil brand new melling oil pump decided to lock up. I was about 3 miles from home when i noticed my oil pressure gauge had spiked to 100 psi. I shut it down and heard a ting noise when i went to fired it back up i heard a bunch of tinging in the distributor. Come to find out my oil pump drive shaft twisted and stripped out. So i change the pump and shaft. Got oil back up to the rockers started it and the lifters were really loud i drove it around the block and it got quiter when i got back after about ten minutes they got loud again.. do you think my lifters a collapsed and do you tgink the cam is junk now?
