I just finished my redtop swap and the engine has a very annoying metallic rattle, does not sound like timing chain- noise is loudest at front of engine on cylinder head, goes away with any rpm higher than idle, any suggestions?

Also my cooling system does not build pressure, I have no external leaks, temp averages around 192 according to consult-II and my fans work great - not sure bout this:hammer:
