Good point. That would explain everything. Piston slap goes away (or not even present in "L" squirter engine) and valve lash noise appears as things heat up?

The problem I have with that theory is I expect someone who is savvy enough to do what many of us can't seem to accomplish -- use a vacuum gauge and measure fuel pressure -- knows the difference between the sound of pinging under load and excess valve clearance.
