TPI-HSR, making funny sound from intake
Hi, I have a 383, with AFR heads, HSR, and 42lbs injectors. I finally after a year, got around to getting the car started, and now i notice sound, its a clanking sound, its like two sounds per second and comes from the intake and not the heads. Clank, one million, clank... I dont really know what it is, and and when I rev it up I dont really hear, nor notice hear an increase in the incidents of the sound. I have read on one of the searches that I did, that maybe the noise could be coming from the larger injectors, and the aftermarket fuel pressure regulator. Any insight will be of help.. thanks Randall

Take a vacuum hose of about 3 feet long and use it has an stethoscope to pin point the noise. With that you probably find easier where the noise come from.
You did a test run to the car?
Just my .02 cents

U recently changed the heads to some AFR. And I know I didn't drop any bolts. The sound appeared after the head swap. I think it might be my valve lash but it's not comming from the heads so that's why i'm lost.
