Decided to finally break down and install the pi cams on the car since I had the next few days with nothing to do (luckily). I'll get straight to the point as the car is currently down and I need to get it back up ASAP!!!
I installed the pi cams with the new bolts as required though am having a problem on the passenger side now. Once we bolted it back up and put the valve cover on, when I cranked it we have some valvetrain clattering. It's clatter like a rocker were to fall off or something similar to that, though thats not the problem as I checked for that
The people around the car said it was coming from the passenger side though it very well could be somewhere else though hopefully I have it pinned down. I torqued the guides to 89 as I believe that is where they need to be, though still have this noise.
I didn't remove the front cover for this install though I am almost positive that we didn't slip a tooth or anything. With the car at TDC, the lobes aren't touching the rockers on #1, which I believe is how it is supposed to be, correct?
Where do I start? I'd love to get this car going soon. Would there be harm in me putting the npi cam in the passenger side with the pi cam in the driver side? I obviously wouldn't run that for a long period of time, though would like to see if maybe its the cam.
As for the noise--definitely a "clatter" and not a knock of any sort. I know this post is rambled on though I spent ~12 hours straight on this car last night and only managed 1 hour of sleep before having to help a friend with some a/c work
