Rocker Noise

[falconater]

Hi, I got my motor fired up last night and the rockers are really noisey. 351w rhs heads old hyd roller z303 ford racing cam w/scorpion 1.6 rockers. They sound fairly even, it gets louder when the oils up to temp. I've adjusted them twice, half turn preload. Is this just how it is with this cam? Should I be worried?
-Crane Valve Springs 96870-16
-Scorpion Race Series Rocker Arms 1018
-Ford Performance Parts Camshafts M-6250-Z303
-Stock lifters,spider and dogbones (reason?)

I couldn't figure out how to upload a video.

Moved this out of the purgatory that is "Other Auto Tech" to get it some exposure for you.

• did you measure pushrod length
• how many miles on the lifters
• what weight oil

Thanks! When it was intially put together the pushrods were measured, I had a steel/iron dist gear incident...I'd rather not get into. Before that it had a erson cam with similar lift, I didnt check between the two. It wasnt loud then either. As of now it's running Mag1 10-30. The lifters were reused ( block and crank as well) the motor was a reman at some point. They checked out then.
