Default 02 Gt making weird sound.

It makes a metal to metal sound on start up. Sounds like it is clanking wondering if it is a spun bearing.

Giving that amount of information and hoping for a proper diagnosis is the same as calling your doctor, coughing into the phone, and saying, "what's wrong with me?"

Going to build it up now, or just a stock rebuild?

I haven't decided yet. I am tempted to go 4 valve but it would take longer getting the parts together than it would to put another 2 valve back in. I am going to talk to Jon Jon and see how busy he is.

If you could find a Mark VIII engine and then get a 99/01 cobra intake setup it would be a fairly easy swap.

How did you determine it was a spun bearing and not, say, the timing chain tensioner not getting primed properly on start-up?
