my question is, do FE's have a noisy valve train? i built this mammoth 390 and since day one its had a noisy valve train but i've had no problems and its got 50,000 on it and it has not gotten any louder. have any of you noticed this in your mustangs with this motor? and if so is there an aftermarket rocker arm set-up? this motor is in a ford truck but i know some stangs had these in them in the early going.
