Thread: Noise at bout 2000-2500 RPM

no it checks bearing clearances.

think the problem might be figured out. took the front cover off again, and the bolts to my machined pump cover show wear marks on them from the chain. obviously because i put 1 metal timing cover gasket on it. picked up 2 paper gaskets today to space it out somemore. We will see what happens tomorrow when the motor goes back in and gets started. on the rear header, cylinder 6 showed a slight exhaust leak.
