Grinding Noise From Head? Z6 engine...
Woohoo i give up on this problem and decided its time to find someone who may knows whats going on
1995 Civic with 545,000miles on it. while engine running at any rpm theres a grinding noise coming from the head area consistently. i have so far changed the dizzy ( another working one) and have taken the plastics off the timing cover area.
i can't see what else it can be is the engine ready to crap out?

You sound shocked about the mileage... its just broke in HAHA
Ok, I'll look at the caps, but i clearly remember not seeing any shavings since i took the valve cover off to remove the timing covers.

loose valve clearance? what is the spec on torque/ feeler gauges then?
drove the car wide open last night, the grinding seems to get faster as the revs go up...
i'll recheck the valves. and the cam caps look fine, hard to believe these things would rotate so much to last this long.
