I just completed my first cylinder head replacement after purchasing a performance head from Matt. I tapped and plugged the coolant ports and attempted to follow his instructions to the letter.
Just finished the install. Good news is she fired right-up. Some stumbling while cold and I need to set the timing with a light but generally seems to be running ok, except for...
At approximately 1.2-1.5K, a fairly loud whine/scream/shreek emerges from the engine compartment. No idea where it's coming from and it fades away when RPMs drop back below ~900. Not sure what's causing it. I re-mounted the insert in my Allison Exhaust so that's one potential cause I suppose.
However, looking for suggestions from folks here about where to look for sources of the noise.
