It might be the very early beginnings of a rod knock, but I think it's just valve chatter, have the valves adjusted and it should go away.

Hey man I don't really know about cars like that but I do mess with my Honda alot which I have the same engine you do... My suggestions are it can be the heat shield on your headers, valves need to be adjusted, or sounds like your rod is knocking
