Okay so once I put everything together and started my car there was little ticking.Injectors all OHM fine thanks for the help but still can't figure out the ticking.I got a vaccuum leak which I'm in the search of right now.Then I also have a loud ticking where I go at high rpms.Have been having it and did two oil changes and nothing.It sounds like metal scrapping on metal.Any help please?

Please no BS for the last time.We need to keep this a clean forum thanks.

Dont worry about a little ticking or knocking, thats just the rods trying to get out of the block for some fresh spring air and sunshine!!!!

Seriously, it may be the HLA's need time to pump up with oil after being dry for the months the car was out of service, or even just the injectors ticking- take a short clear/clean video of the engine running and post so we can better determine the sounds you are hearing.
