Throttle body knock...

i have a 91 n/a that i just replaced the motor in.
no under decent acceleration there is a knock...maybe clicking that comes from the throttle body. the car drives fine but has that knock.
any ideas or things to check to trouble shoot this problem?
thanks

what kind of noise?

I'd suspect about seventy billion other items for making a knocking sound before I'd suspect the TB.
