I posted a similar thread a year ago, adjusted lash when I had this problem and that solved it at the time. I would have reposted in the same thread, but it was closed..
I Need help with diagnosing noise after a retorque
I swapped out my factory injectors for brand new 5x14s. At that same time, I also retorque my head studs. Most of them only moved 1/32 of an rotation if that.
I've rechecked my valves 4 times now. Originally getting them all at .10 and .20 clearance. Then I dialed it down to .009 and .18 clearance. No real change that I've noticed.
The engine, only under load will produce a weird thumping sound, which sounds like it's from the air some how. Almost sounds similar to an exhaust manifold leak on a V6 ford engine.
This happened to me before when I retorqed the head, then I went through the valves more precisely the 2nd times and it fixed the issue.
When idling, cruising at speed with light load, or when completely off the pedal I can't tell that it's making any weird noise. Only under load. Even light load of slowly taking off the noise is loud and noticeable.
Fuel pressure reads 23psi at idle, and over 30 when moving. The exhaust only expels a slight haze when cold and at idle. The engine has head studs. Compression seems fine. And no exhaust leaks from what I can see.
Here are links to Google drive of videos showing what I'm hearing. It isn't picked up well on these recordings, but when I have the volume up I can hear what I'm referring to. It's much louder in person.

Has anyone else seen this and understand what is going on?
