    Get a stethoscope and isolate the general location of the noise. Might be the timing chain, a rocker, a lifter,
    a flex plate, or whatever. Then, once you isolate the general location, you can get more specific with the
    find.

    I will try the stethoscope, the engine is loud enough on its own that its really hard to get an idea by sticking you head in the engine compartment.
