[QUOTE="2slo95fiveoh, post: 1082067, member: 8966"] Well the more I thought about it and talked with a couple guys at work, I started fearing that the valve lash wasn't properly set, since I was getting so much excess noise resonating through the upper intake manifold. These suspicions were confirmed this evening when I took the valve covers off and found just about all of them with excess lash, two of which were concerningly loose. So I went through, turned the engine over by hand, and set the valve lash to 1 turn past zero lash (as specified by anderson motorsports), and triple checked them all after adjusting. I got it all put back together, and installed the new bearing in the supercharger tensioner pulley and put it back on (even though I plan on installing a smaller drive pulley when they arrive).. I plan on starting it up tomorrow and seeing how it runs, if it sounds as good as I'm hoping, then I will be taking a video. If I'm really on the ball I will pick up my brake line parts and start that fabrication. [/QUOTE]
