VR6 rattle at startup

Recommended Posts

Does anyone get a rattle from what sounds like the lifters when starting up before the oil pressure rises? I know its been said that if it dissappears within a few seconds its probably ok, but none of my other cars have ever done that (with higher mileages).

 

The engines had new lifters but I didn't check the cams, although they did have signs of wear. Thing is, if the cams are under minimum wear, am I going to wreck the lifters? If so, anyone got any 268's going cheap?

 

Mentioned many a time but is it worth getting those cams with no other mods, other than milltek, k&n panel, 3 angle valve seats and a 82.5 rebore?
