done.... I pulled the valve covers again today and voila: 8 rocker arms were loose.... I adjusted the valve lash again and used new self locking nuts instead of the long lock-nuts that came with my stud girdle.
The engine runs fine now, no tapping noise what so ever.......
It needs a final carb and timing adjustment, it misfires a little when accelerating from 1500 rpm but I am sure that can be adjusted..... above (estimated) 2500 rpm the engine pulls so f^&*ing hard it is unbelieveable
