Default valve train noisy

ok so i am on my first engine build so im a little paranoid about things. i started my car up for the first time thursday, my block and head are totally redone to the T and it has a lot of valve train noise like a click i have adjusted my valves about 3-4 times now and i was wondering if maybe one of my springs broke so i checked the springs which are brian crower by the way idk if they are loud or not but they all turned out fine then i checked the compression all good now i just checked for a bent valve just by air i blew air in the ports to see if i would hear or feel anything out the plug holes then i blew air in the plug holes and felt and listened to the ports still nothing then i plugged up everything no cams max valve lift and put the plugs in and had someone crank it still nothing at all so i guess im good but i guess the question i have is does new valve train click for a while till it breaks in properly and no its not starving of oil plenty of it for sure...possible injector noise idk let me know!!
