I found a bad spark plug wire. After it was replaced, I've still got the noise. My next step is to find a mechanic to drop it off with. I'm hoping it's a simple valve adjustment.

Thanks, Convincor. I've been following that thread, too. I think I'll call the engine builder and ask which intake gaskets he used. It's time to pull the plugs and see what they say.
