Making a grinding metal/ rattle noise all along the intake side of engine (mid to rear engine) right around 2500rpm and up.. Changed chaine, tensioners, and gears about a year ago after I had a similar noise around 3000rpm. Noise stoped, but now is doing a similar senario. Oil pressure is fine and upper guides are removed. Engine runs good otherwise. What you think?
