SargeRX8 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Its about 2 - 3mm spacing I think he needs to put. It can put undue stress on the CAS and on the shaft. Maybe it could be linked to the noise... Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/392818-noise-after-rebuild/page/2/#findComment-6249576 Share on other sites More sharing options...
STATUS Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Besides the knock, you need to space the Cas away from the cam, or it will break the keyway, and stuff the cas generally once its cut the back of the cas it will flutter the timing up top... really commo issue.

hy_rpm Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Well if the noise is reduced in cylinder 5 and 6 when disabled its coming from the bottom end then possibly bearing only way to find out Is to remove and inspect Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/392818-noise-after-rebuild/page/2/#findComment-6249640 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dahtone Racing Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 when you spun the engine over to build oil pressure did you have spark plugs fitted to the engine?

r33_racer Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Its about a 4mm spacer for the cas. lol made that mistake when I was 18! Use a stethascope or long screwdriver to try and pinpoint where the noise is coming from...

BLITZ-26 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 a while ago i hear a very similar sound on friends SR that was rebuilt, turned out to be the gudgen pin i think thats how its spelt? found out after the piston went through the head Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/392818-noise-after-rebuild/page/2/#findComment-6249932 Share on other sites More sharing options...
abr33 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 when you spun the engine over to build oil pressure did you have spark plugs fitted to the engine? Recon it'd matter much? provided it wasnt assembled dry, shouldnt hurt as far as i know. plugs out is probably safer though dont think it'd matter I really think its a lifter not bled or stuffed, listen to the knock speed, to me it sounds too slow to be crank speed. SOLUTION to find out, use timing light, does the knock have the exact speed as the flash of the light? if so, its cam/lifter/valve problem. If its twice as fast as the flash you have a bottom end problem Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/392818-noise-after-rebuild/page/2/#findComment-6249938 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If its twice as fast as the flash you have a bottom end problem I was going to suggest he do something like this but with the injector on 5 and 6. Listen to the injector clicking open then see how that correlates with the head. If it is a bearing in the bottom end it will thud of every cycle, if its the lifter it will only thud on the exhaust or intake stroke or how ever the f**k it works.

Missileman Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Sure it's not something mind numbingly basic, like the hinge bolt on the power steering pump not tightened up, same goes with the alternator hinge bolt?

Girorostar Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I had that exact same noise when i rebuilded my engine. I told my mechanic to check the timing again if its not that to pull the engine apart again, not sure what he did though but a week later the engine was running fine and no problems 2 years later now. I'll give him a call and ask what he did. I didnt have to pay a lot extra so i dont think he pulled the engine apart again.

meet07 Posted February 24, 2012 Author Share Posted February 24, 2012 is it running oil restrictors in the block? ive seen the same thing when the builder run restrictors in both galleries. I bought some Tomei restrictors to install but after doing some reading on hydrolic lifters there was no need for them so I sold them...So no restrictors installed..

Wiseco has a "C" clip on both sides that keeps it secure. When I disassembled the bottom end after the 1st rebuild all the pins where secure and there where no marking on the cylinder wall....A piston through the block would not be good.....lol Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/392818-noise-after-rebuild/page/2/#findComment-6250233 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didnt know I had to, started it, sounded like a milo tin full of bolts, ran it for 5 mins, next day quiet as a mouse.. They self bleed. You may have a little bit of shit or cotton or aloy or god knows what clogging the little hole for a lifter.
