Well i worked out all the problems almost with my new 306.. But on my driverside im hearing a tapping, the guy thats been helping me said it sounds like its a lifter thats not pumping up as he put it. Any opinions on this?

Did you prime the motor? Did you get oil up through the pushrods to every rocker?
