Was it "tapping" all the time when you were driving (basically, were the shims correct?).

Were the oil tubes/etc clean?

How is your oil pressure? What kind of oil do you use?

That is a disturbing (and expensive) problem.

It's pretty easy to match a set of cams based on the numbers on the back.

Were those cams are marked 8 and 9 on the back?
