Default Valvetrain Noise - What is normal?
Lets say you have a setup of this:

ITR Outer
Portflow Inners
Portflow Retainers
CTR Cams

Would that setup expect to sound louder then the stock setup?

If so, then we are ok....

The valvelash was done to spec about 1K miles ago.... and it sounded like this since day 1.

Thanks.

IT SHOULD SOUND LIKE IT DID WHEN IT WAS STOCK IF NOT MAYBE NEED TO ADJUST AGAIN ITS BETTER TO ADJUST THE VALVE LASH WHEN THE MOTOR IS COOL

That's right. Everytime I've installed a set of bigger cams on a b-series, motor has always ticked louder.....Normal.

Or it can be the LMA. Mine makes a little more noise than normal also, but everyone else says it should be fine.
