To me it sounds mostly like valve train noise from performance springs but I'd also check the bolts behind the clutch to see if any of the bolt heads are making intermittent contact with the clutch while it's turning. It's no sin to be a little paranoid about your engine and the sounds you hear, that's a good thing IMO. If there's any doubt on the clearance cuts you can always pull the side cover to have a look at the price of a gasket. If you installed 22 or 26 lb springs, that's likely what you're hearing.
@@KentuckyFriedFixes Id be happy if it were just a bolt head tapping the back of the driver then i wouldnt have to disassemble the engine again. That would be a rather easy fix. I just am not a 100% sure if i shaved off enough material inside the block. Am hoping its not the rod hitting the block walls anywhere as it turns. Just would hate to be riding and have it self destruct with me on it 😬. Im about to test drive it right now so illnler yall know how it goes. 🙏🏻
