well i have this motor for about 2 months now and its my third motor in a year as the first one cylinder when out by the oil pump not working. 2nd by spun bearing in dented oil pan. now the car makes the nose like it isnt receiving enough oil, cuz i can here what i think is the cylinders knocking on the way from work. Does anyone know fo sure what it could be??????????

i know... but that has to be a lifter tick, sounded exactly like mine but i got it fixed. replaced with stock 2nd gen lifters at the moment though. didn't upgrade them.

Guess so but what scared my wallet the most was when i would rev a lil bit it would sound louder and i was like no not this again. I dont want to waste another 1500 on a new motor and swap as im still finishing paying this one.
put right now im not intending on upgrading as im currently selling the car but if i dont by summer i guess i will.
thanks

ebay@cnsautoparts.com Sells 2nd generation of Lash adjusters for $113.86 Full set. I got same issue on my other n/a 3k so I put better oil and change it every 3000 miles + filter. Tiking does goes away about 80% after worms up. Its because 2nd gen. lifter are upgraded to 3mm hole for oil current instead 2mm. Increased opening for better lubrication.
