Ticking Turbo LS/Vtec

I have discovered that it was a build issue.. Turns out there was not enough piston to wall clearance and the number 2 piston was torn up really bad which caused the piston to rock in the bore. Thanks to all for your insight I have the problem fixed at went to Dyno at 330whp and 290ft/lbs and take 2nd place in the unlimited division at Targa Newfoundland.

---My motor developed this tick after a run and for the life of me i can't figure out what it is. I replaced the LMAs and check the valve adjustment but can seem to get rid of it. If you have any suggestions as to what it is please post it.

Sorry but its a sleeved 84mm ls vtec with ported head CP pistons, eagle rods, RC 750cc injectors, etc, etc, this is not a "stock" motor. But I guess you would know.....

[zmklutch]

Needs valve to be adjusted theres probably one to lose causing it to tick like that

[TheNathan696969]

i bet the colour of your oil was terrible lol

[Jerz0neMUSICC]

i know this is fixed and i read what the problem was.... but just by ear of a youtube video its impossible to tell. coulda been a rod knock, piston rock as the problem turned out to be, majority of the time its just chattery valves as thats a common issue with hondas. anyways glad you fixed it and hope your drivin hard!
