Ok so here's the deal
Idles a bit high around 1200 and higher sometimes
Only problem I have is a strange rattle when I get to around 2-3k
Sounds like its coming from the intake close to the valve cover ?
Any suggestions
 
no video sorry and yeah it does go away about 3 or 4k or maybe i just dont hear it over the exhaust LOL
but the good part is that i figured out its my timing belt bearings are a lil old so getting a new gates race belt soon
 
I would definitely drive light and careful with bad tensioner bearings....if they seize up, byebye motor.
