Just wondering, does your engine click when its warm? Mine clicks alot when its cold but isnt as bad when it warms up, I got my valves adjusted and it didnt seem to make a difference

I was just about the post the same thing. A lot of people dont know that this is normal. Injectors are more of a higher pitched noise than the valves.
