OK I'm back, thank Jack for this awesome forum.
and now for the important part,
first here's the run down on my rebuild C6 block maganfluxed, bored .030, new forged flat top pistons, Isky 262 hyd cam and lifters, rotating assembly(s) cleaned and balanced, matching head ported and polished, larger intake/exhaust valves installed, Cliffy port divider, Cliffy 6into1 header, original style rocker arms rebuilt, Holley 2300 500cfm w/Cliffy adapter(probably too much but still fun), this is what I can remember from off the top of my head.
And now my problem, it seems that after about 2000 miles on the fresh rebuild I had a tapping in my rockers so I yanked the valve cover and adjusted the rockers that were tapping, it fixed the problem...temporarily. About 2 weeks later the tapping came back and again I yanked the cover and adjusted accordingly, and then consecutively almost every 8 to 14 days since I had to yank the cover and readjust.
So any ideas?
I am thinking it is a lifter or lifters fouling or I am losing a cam lobe(s) otherwise I'm stumped, I don't have that much time left on the warranty so an immediate answer would definitely be appreciated.
Thanks again.
