I like this bloodcurling Noise too,
At my Work we have a Customer with a modern Mustang V8 and the same
Thing in it, and at the first Time i hear it I thought its broken.

I think when You have it in Your Car,that Nobody wants to start a Race with You..

I have a dyno scheduled next week. I found the #6 intake valve and #3 exhaust valve didn't have any lash at all when hot. After readjusting the lash while HOT, the engine now runs much smoother. I had the rocker shaft removed when I swapped stiffer springs, but I didn't touch the adjustments at all. Last time we were on a dyno, we found the perfect tune, then got back from lunch break and found the fuel distribution was off tune, but didn't find the culprit. We had wideband sensors on cylinders #5 and #6, and now I think it was probably the #6 intake valve that caused the problems with tuning when the engine got really hot.

Jyrki,is it the Engine with your cracked and welded Head were is on the Dyno now?

This is my stock 1946 engine. I put the '49 engine project on hold. It seems the head is impossible to weld.
