After 250000km the lifters in my au decided they've had enough. So I've replaced them with a new set, unfortunatly after doing this they are still noisy and a new noise has appeared. It's different to the lifter noise, it sounds more like a sharp crack similar to somthing shorting out. I've had alook in the dark but I can't see any sparks jumping from anywhere. I'm completly stumped.

Any ideas?

Lifter noise is gone. But only after completely dismantling the rocker gear and giving it a thorough clean out.

Also put in a new cam it's a waggot 766, and holy s**t doesn't it go now. It ran on the standard computer but is way to big for the standard tune, so I plugged in a chiptorque chip that was pre loaded with their hp4 tune, that cleaned it up heaps but still needs a cutom tune to be at it's best. Gains are right through the rev range but the power really pours on at 4 grand right through to god knows where cause I haven't had it over 6 yet, but everything looks promising and deffinatly better than the piece of rubbish I got from crow cams.

I'm excited to. I'm not sure what it gona give before it gets a full tune but I'm thinking it should be around the 145-150 mark as it sits.
