I got the motor running today. It runs great except I can hear the
pistons tipping. I think the top bushings are a bit too tight which
makes the pistons tip and the bottom of them are touching the cylinder
walls, which makes a noticable 'clank' sound.

Question for the motor savy: Will this go away once the motor runs for a
while or will it get worse?

Also: how much oil should come up to the top of the rockers once the
motor is running?
