hey guys, looking for some help on diagnosis, just swapped over my 240sx with a 5.3L L33 with 34k...put about 50 miles tops on it now, and all of sudden this chirping noise has shown up. definately not the belt, sounds like it's coming from the driver side head. I've read through a few of the threads here to see if it's a "typical" problem but unsure how serious a problem I have and if I need to claim Warranty from the people I bought it from.

any ideas what it can be? here's hoping it's nothing serious....totally has ruined my day time to open a cold one

alright you guys were right it's in the belt, funny how noises can throw their voice
I've tried a different alternator, and a new idler pully to no avail. The minute I hit the belt with a shot of silcone it instantly hushes it....tensioner not tight enough? belt out of alignment somehow (no idea how you even "adjust" belt alignment or if you can? just not sure what to try next before I start just throwing money at it in trial and error.
