Default wierd motor noise vid inside

i got this wierd noise coming from the drivers side. it sounds like from the valvetrain. i pulled off the valve cover, everything looks good. nothing i seen looked broke.

it only makes this noise from 2-3000 RPMs

anyone got any ideas on what this noise is?

Are you talking about that almost sorta kinda clicking sound when you finish with each rev?

sounds like a loose rocker,check all your rocker bolts and make sure they are torqued down to 22ft lbs, i think thats the torque spec. you might want to double check.

Possible bent pushrod? It could be an exhaust leak as well.

the noise isn't that distinct on these videos like it is on the first one.

in the first one you can hear it once i let off the gas and the RPMs drop it makes a flutter sound.

i wish i could have got a video of it with my video camera instead.

anyone got any ideas as to what it is?
