No, maybe you are thinking of solid lifters - they are a bit noisy.

All of them I have been around make more noise than the oem setup

If they ain't set right, they'll make a bit more racket

yeah they are noisy when they're out of adjustment. i aggravated a friend of mine because his were off a little and it sounded like an exhaust leak. other than that they are quiet.

My Crane 1.7`s are quieter than the stock junk I took off.
I set the preload properly.

Don`t just bolt them down and go without checking and setting the correct preload like some idiots recommend.

hey 8950ho, can you enlighten me about what preload you used. I torqued them down to 22lbs but mine still make some noise. I was recommended to the a set of slightly bigger push rods but not sure on what to do.
