E5 Weird noise after cam install - pls help

Hi Guys

Hoping someone can help.
I recently had cams 272 and hks cam gears installed and a tune on the evo 5.

Impressive results after tune.

But have noticed since then I have this weird noise at idle and when when engine is at operating temperature from the cambelt side.

I have managed to find a youtube vid that sounds exactly like my issue and same weird noise/sound that I have :


Hope you can help

when using aftermarket cam gears(especially check the bolt lenght, some cam gears are too thick for the OEM bolt on the Billet cams

something in the valvetrain is not right. I would not be revving it or drive it until you get you find out the cause.

What I hear in the video is a lifter tapping - kinda common after a cam install.

did you replace the cam belt tensionser with an OEM item? did you replace the lifters?

Sounds like lifter tick, make sure when you are changing cams to bleed the lifters
