SPADGE

Piston slap - worn small end bearings - worn followers etc....could be just fooked

It is not low on oil is it ?

Your hydraulic lifters (aka tappets) could also have had it. You can try and clean them (search for tappet clean on here, there was a detailed post by Dave Henshall IIRC).
Otherwise, get a new set.

Would be a good idea to check your oil pressure (cold and hot) with an accurate guage, as it may be that your oil pump needs replacing.

it was ok until i got back from engine advantages got home and noticed the noise but mind you it did get 7 runs on the rollers and blow a water pipe so might just of had a nice day and needs a rebuild

pee vee

the noise might just appear to be coming from the head mate..
as the piston passes close ish by. it would prolly be at the top of the stroke
(the the con rod changes direction) that the little rattle happens each time..

i got a rattle on mine too.. hope its the lifters

Ginge !

little ends sound like the noise is comming from the bottom of the head tappets sound like the rocker cover whenya looking at it

well thats what mine sound like anyway

got a block odf wood and see if it amplifys the nosie at all

Well if you are so sure it's coming from the top end then it 'could be' worn valve guides.

But i'd go with the others and say it's probably piston slap mate, the 2WD's are well known for it

HTH
