shoot my trouble
ok I posted about this earlier, now I've actually had a chance to get under the hood and listen. Got a loud tap synchronized with the amount of throttle applied. Lifters tapped before, this is alot more noticeable, smooths out with steady rpms in all ranges, so idle is quiet, apply throttle, get loud tapping, hold steady and it abates. Anyone.....anyone, Bueler?

Ya appreciate that (no sarcasm here at all, I miss basic steps all the time) did that, half a quart off, last change was three weeks ago. Penn 5/30. Rebuilt three months ago, new rocker arms, push rods and etc.
I'll pull the V cover see what I can find, thanks

I'm thinking it might just be an exhaust leak at the header, its been three months since I bolted it. That whole intake/exhaust design is a bit flexy, so I'll just cinch her up when it cools down.
Oh and I'm sorry about your old lady......
