valve train noise
first off thanks for a great forum, and all the help. I had a loud noise coming from the right side valve cover, I removed valve cover and inspected the cam, I found a few wiped out lobes, and rocker arms, I replaced the cam, bearing towers and all the rocker arms, I started the engine, sound alot better, still getting some noise from the same location, I am thinking maby a bad lifter or two,but not sure, since it is hydrolic, with no adjustment could this be the problem, I was reading about checking the lifters with a guage and maby changing what i call the puck to a thicker one, not sure which way to go. One more thing at idle it is rough, makes the whole car shake a bit, as soon as I give it a bit of gas in gear it takes off and runs out fine. Any help would be a blessing.
Thanks
Neal
