cam/valvetrain

Ok my buddy and i installed my stage 2 cams last night. the tunes a little off but we are getting that worked out. The main concern to me is while my car is running you hear a clicking noise coming from the motor. It's not the valve hitting or else i would of been done by none. Does anyone know what that noise can possibly be?

Thanks

I watched the vid's you posted up and my motor is making the same noise just wont idle and i don't got enough fuel coming in

This is basically exact what it sounds like.

I asked around on here and one guy said it might be the chain tensionor. Any opinions will be nice

yeah for me that was the bolt in the soild mount hitting the bracket. but if your not sure just pull the cover back off check your marks if there spot on. and everything is tight your good to go. i'll get a new video and tell me if it is still doing it.
