Finally got to the bottom of it....First time artound one of the o-rings dropped out during installation of the cam plate...Second time I managed to reverse the small gyrotor pack and the separator plate. That came to me this morning while staring at the manual. Oh well, no blood or bond money as they say. Thankx everybody for the help. I now have good oil pressure and no valve clatter. In the morning I'll put the heat shields on and finish the other small stuff. Oh yeah, and go for a ride.

Great glad to hear you found the problem, I had an issue with my build which required me to tear it back down to fix. It sure is hard to talk yourself into going back in once you've put it all back together. Good job.
