How noisey is normal on a 2 liter w/solid lifters? After adjusting the valves [some were a little tight] they seem a little noisy once it warms up [only at idle]. I know a local Porsche shop goes to hydaulics on his re builds and noise is one of his reasons. He says it quites them down quite a bit.

Do you have stock pushrods, or are they chromoly replacements?

The source of alot of sound can be remedied in the side clearance of the shafts, as well as replacing the valve adjuster screws. Worn screws may give a .006 reading with a feeler gage, but since they are worn may make noise that they should not.

My engines don't clatter.

Stock pushrods . I originally set them on the bench at .006 across the board and after run in they changed a little on a couple of the exhaust valves...say .004.
