440 break in noise from timing cover....we think....be gentle!
Getting ready to put it back in. Not using a mechanical fuel pump so that will cancel out a possible issue there. I burnished the bushing so the shaft is smooth as silk now but still tight if that makes sense.
The oil pan has a strange witness mark(s) on it, but it is not possible that the counterweight or rod hit it. This part is under the first main cap, and more toward the chain.
First pic is with off engine, second is just dry fit to show where it is. It is even farther away from the counterweight than the pic suggests, I am not great at pics lol
Any thoughts here?
