How bad is the noise? All overhead cams make some noise.

When you do the adjustment, are you inserting the feeler gauge when valve spring is in the fully relaxed position?

[bad_boyz98]

Yes i am and it sound like there is a socket in there that is how bad the noise is

[spiffyguido]

Any chance the adjustment bolts weren't re-tightened after adjustment and the set screws have loosed off? Is the timing set correctly and were the new valves the correct size and length?

[bad_boyz98]

It migh have and the timing is right and i had a shop do buy and do the valves so i hope it is done right

Start by double-checking things. You can use our video for a rough idea of the procedure, although we demonstrated on a 3rd gen. The lash can't appear out of thin air so there must be a mechanical reason for your troubles.

Yes, the rocker arms on the intake and exhaust side are the same.
