Sounds like a lifter. Happens You can try different oils of different weights but if the noise stops on its own your doing well as it is.

This noise stops when the engine starts to warm. I got the car 2 months ago; it has 116K on the odometer. It runes very good except for this noise. There is no oil usage, the oil pressure is good. I am running Valveoline 10-30 High mileage synthetic, it had 10-50 Pennzoil in it and the pressure went to 56psi. high side, from 30000rpm on. After changing oil it idles at 30psi. And 60psi. At 3000. Can anyone help me with the noise? Bruce Andrews
