Valve hushers? 200 1993

Good point. That would explain everything. Piston slap goes away (or not even present in "L" squirter engine) and valve lash noise appears as things heat up?

The problem I have with that theory is I expect someone who is savvy enough to do what many of us can't seem to accomplish -- use a vacuum gauge and measure fuel pressure -- knows the difference between the sound of pinging under load and excess valve clearance.
