What oil ya running in it, sounds like oil might be too thick, it'll thin out when it warms up thus taking away the rattle

could be a faulty oil pump ..... check your oil filter , is it the correct one ???

did you change or check the O ring/gasket on the oil pickup when you had it off?

might sound like a really stupid question but are you sure youve enough oil in the engine? with the pump and sump out you would have drained more oil that you usually would for a normal oil change

Guessing you dont have an oil pressure gauge? if its taking a while to go out and flickers untill warm its down on oil pressure for some reason.. gasket between the oil pump on the right way? what was wrong that the bearings and pump were changed?
