I am new here and seeking advise on how to break in a fresh rebuild to a 1.8L BP motor in my 1995 Escort GT. We ran it an hour after rebuild and is making "more than normal" valve noise and doesnt get any better at all. I have owned 10 different Escorts and Protege's with the 1.8L and have never had one rebuilt so I am unfamiliar with what I should do and how much noise to expect. Any advise?

When i rebuilt my N/A BP about 8,000 miles ago i had the same thing. I pulled the cams, pulled the lifters out, and followed these steps.
