hello everybody at 6GC im Bdub. my car is 90 celica gts with a motor out of a wrecked 95 vert (sad). i just gotten this motor rebuilt and bored and i've noticed since i put it all back together that it sounds like a diesel when its cold. it goes away when its warm so its not the bottom end. maybe a valve out of adjustment?

i have the same problem with my fresh motor too. only way to check is to take the valve cover off with a 32mm socket (or huge wrench) and check the clearances. the shims are expensive haha
