[urq] Rattle at higher rpm

So this is not a fair question (an I kinda know the answer - in that I
know I just need to get under there and listen with somebody helping me
on the throttle) but I'm going to throw it out there anyway...
 
For years I've had this annoying, fairly loud rattle - like a loose bolt
or something, when I'm driving and the motor revs to about 4000+ and I
shift.  This rattle has survived a motor swap and a cat swap.  It's
definitely metal on metal and goes away as revs fall.  And it does not
happen until the engine is warm/hot.  I'm thinking I need to get the
engine hot, put the car up on ramps and carefull crawl under there (a
little bit) and have somebody rev the motor.  Any other thoughts???
Obvious places to look for something loose?  Maybe an odd bolt on the
tranny?  Any BTDT?
 
TIA-
