YACT: Piston slap?

Ever heard of this? My dad's '90 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera supposedly has it says a mechanic at a performance shoppe he visits frequently. Basically it's a tapping in the motor of the pistons when he puts on the gas. It's pretty damn annoying but it goes away after the car warms up. My car buddy thinks it a gasket problem but I'm not sure.
 
some cars do it normally... my car does it a little. and my old car did it a lot.

(it's a thing with chrysler 4 bangers)
