you're supposed to have aftermarket springs for those cams. could be your valves slapping back, or your LMA's are dying. my LMA's died shortly after installing that cam.

I'm fairly certain a number of people have been running it on stock valvetrain without issue. I'll wait for them to chime in though.
When I ran my 59100 cam... it was loud... no question.
