i can hear the chain hit the top plate near the cams, untill it warms up, would it hurt if i took the valve cover off and took that plate off for this winter?
I plan on putting a new timing chain and stuff in this winter but I need to get the next few events out of the way first. would it be safe? I've heard of people doing it before just want to double check.
okay chain rattle.

Thats lame.Like you said just take it off when he is gone or something.Then your timing chain should be fine.
