Noise after cam swap
Swapped a xr259hr cam in my 68 c10 with a 5.3.
And im having a whistling noise when you rev the motor or are driving down the road it gets louder with rpms.
It still does it in neutral.
It still does it with the belt removed also.
Its been a while since ive had a hotrod or a cam in something so could it be just the hardened valve train noise? I have the sewing machine noise that i was expecting but this is more of a whistle.
Thanks for any help.

Well it is possible as everyone in the other thread says it does it more over 2k rpms where mine does it at idle and at every rpm.
Tryin to be optimistic... Lol

Take a video. I have the same problem as do others in that thread.
Here is Colt's new video, he just swapped his
Here are mine
I wonder if all the cores come from the same vendor.
