I think Chris is right, in order to fix it you need to let him build you a 2.4L Stroker  :P

lifters if the sound comes from the valve cover. or it could be an exhaust leak that seals itself when the metal warms up and expands, in which case the sound would most likely be coming from the exh manny/turbo/dp area.

The ECI MULTI.... do you know what you are looking at? Or was that a general statement of "area".  If I could possibly muddle my way through the description of the problem, I would say its the exhaust expansion/contraction cooling noise.
