Lifters or injectors are the most likely causes.

I thought it was lifters too but im starting to think its the injectors because you can feel the vibration a lot on the injector but I didn't know they would make that sound. The video makes it sound louder than it is. lol still blows...I just found a video on youtube its definitely the injectors plus it wont let me upload a video on here thanks guys!

It is the injectors, and it is a common complaint for them to get very loud as the temperature goes down. It's normal though.

Go get a $10 stethoscope from harbor freight and put them on the injectors. I had the same noise and was worried about something in the head, but it's just the noisey 1450cc injectors
