valves tapping? please help.
I have a bar'd jdm B18c in my eh3 and it sounds as if my valves are tapping... so i adjusted all the valves and it helped a little bit but its still apparent and I'm not sure what i should try next. anyone had this problem before? and help would be very much appreciated.

i can only hear it from idle to like 3500 rpm because the motor gets too loud so i cant hear much else.

I dunno much but ill offer my experience I had a sohc vtec d16z6 and it was tpping inside the engine and louder when you reved it...it sounded like a sticky valve or maybe bent valve but it turned out being the #4 piston hitting the head soo hopefully u aint got that problem but good news I got a good excuse to swap in a b18c1 yay!
