It's tough to beat the stock Ford hydro-rollers. I've been running the same set for about 5 or 6 years now. They see 7,800 rpms on a regular basis and easily handle the pressures of my Anderson Hi-Rev valve springs.

I have dual springs and also cannot adjust my rockers enough to keep the tic from coming back.

Some "tick" is normal. What sounds like a tick is just the action of the rockers and push rods changing directions of travel over and over as the cam actuates the valvetrain.

I would expect the noise to stay the same after I adjust my valves. After the last adjustment it ran pretty quiet for about 30 miles or so, then the tic came back.
(I know that the pushrods are hitting the guideplates, and that is part of the noise. I am working on a way to eliminate this but it will take time & $.)

My valve train makes the motor sound like a 408 ci sewing machine.
