Well finally got done my engine swap. Took me and my brother a solid 3 weekends but shes running so I'm happy. I had the exhaust put on today and after I could actually hear the engine I had a ticking that sounds a lot like a lifter. I have the bit of sewing machine lifter noise but theres one that is much louder and out of sync with the others.
Gonna take the valve cover off tomorrow and check it out. The noise is weird from inside the car its easy to hear and coming from the passenger side, but when you get outside the car its hard to hear anything at all so my guess is its coming from the back of the engine.
Anyway heres the few pics and idle vid i took:

Engine waiting for the body to get dropped back on it
3/4 of the way in, got snagged up a bit
Rear end after the exhaust and valance is gone, I like it so much better with nothing showing out the back
The old engine
