    I am sorry everyone for not updating you guys.its been crazy month.someone took out the hood on my truck so truck was in the body shop. then my mom had heart bypass surgery & i been busy taking care of her.but the truck is fixed.it turned out to be that the factory specs for valve lash were .008”intake & .020” exhaust & cylinder number 5 forward exhaust lash was set at .058” cold.they ran the overhead and noise was gone.THANKS everyone for the help.
