Midget tapping noise - update

Well iv adjusted all the tappets on the car today. Ended up having to turnover the engine by jacking up a wheel and turning while in 4th gear (thanks for the advice redscamp).
She now runs nice and smooth.
Next job, sort out knocking noise while in reverse. Im going to drain and refill the gearbox and diff and grease the propshaft tomorrow so hopefully the good weather will last





How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

Check the gearbox mount too, if its perished it can knock due to being forced the opposite direction when in reverse.
