So I did the Texas speed DOD delete, stock cam replacement. Got their valley cover to complete it, all new lifters, new oil pump, timing chain tensioner, oil pan gaskets, new injectors and spark plugs. There is a horrible noise and there was a small amount of metal shavings in the dipstick. Any ideas on what could be going on? I also replaced the vacuum pump during the process. Truck is idling normally it seems and I got good oil pressure on my gauge. Part # for DOD delete kit I used is 25-DOD-L83
