I believe that John has an VIII engine that he is clearing at the moment.

You will be better off getting rid of the IV turbo as it is the smallest in the category.

sounds like lash adjusters to me :)

ye ditch the IV turbo for any other turbo from any other evo except the 7 turbo cos for some reason they fitted a smaller hotside to it.

were they primed/filled with oil before hand ? if not then this could be the problem.

apparently a few people have put them in without doing this and they tapped for a while but apparently once the oil has warmed and thined the noise should stop :)
