Thanks that is what I had hoped for.I think that I need to send my cluch to get it machined to get some of my lost torque back,and add the new spring.

Scott10d, just listened to your engine noise. Mine sounds the same way and was diagnosed as coming from the counter weight. I have completely disassembled my engine to remove the counter weight assembly for examination. I see no excessive wear on the sleeve, weight bores, arm bores. All seemed to be tight enough with no excessive play. I also disassembled the oil pump. It looked good. I know what a rod knock sounds like and mine is not a rod knock. Neither is the noise coming from lash adjusters because they are hydraulic and have no adjustment provisions. My engine started the noise when I dis armed the faulty ACR, but I see no correlation between that and the engine noise I'm hearing. I do know my engine noise certainly is not normal....and I do not know where it's coming from. I'm considering reassembling the engine w/o the counter weight and see what happens. Thanks

Lot'sa vibration.
Have you checked your drive clutch for flyweight rattle?

Removed the clutch except for the pulley for starting. No change in sound.....
