99Classic
Newbie
So about a year ago, my head gasket blew on my 99 Classic. Had the heads professionally redone and had the lifters, rockers etc out. Fixed it up nice. Since then I have had a real bad cold start tap/knock. Engine didnt exceed 100⁰C when the gaskets went. The truck has about 330,000km (about 200,000 miles.) Tried marvel oil, synthetic, different filters etc. Only does it after sitting for 5+ hours. And there is a slight noise when warm, but barely audible. I'm thinking lifters? I'm quite mechanically inclined and prepared to replace them if need be.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Side note: the truck did not make any tapping or knocking noises before the repair
