No oil bath for the lifters. I was thinking the lifter preload was supposed to be done without being pumped up.....maybe something to do next time.

I felt for exhaust leaks but didn't notice anything. Since I am using used headers it is possible that I have a crack.

Since the noise seems to be kind of contained, like it is inside the valve cover, I still think it's more likely coming from the inside.

How loud? Wish I could give an audio. It's noticeable from all the way across the garage. Not a small "tick".

What about this "degreeing the cam". Could that be a factor? The noise is progressively better as I advance the timing.

Thanks again,
Dan
