i have the same rockers as you and when i first installed them they were ticking. Then i let it idle for 5-10minutes occasionally revving it to 3500-4000rpm or so, then it went mostly away.

Alot of people say that their 1.7 crane roller rockers make a slight amount of noise, so it may just be that.

You should do youself a favor and buy a stethoscope, they are VERY helpful when trying to find where a noise is coming from. This way you can touch it on the valve cover to see for sure if it's coming from there or not.


oh and by the way, I installed my cam a couple weeks ago without even thinking about degreeing it and theres no noise or problems at all.
