how do u know when to rebuild valvetrain?
just adjusted the timming with a new timming tensioner runs great no issues... except there is still chatter in the head, by process of elimination i know it is not the timming chain or any of that im thinking valve train is tired and needs to be rebuilt .... thoughts and opinions welcome
valves/springs...etc.
