My set-up is a Crane valve train and with your comments, it is
making me a bit concerned with the new cam. I have been
running a hyd roller for the last 200hrs without the noise. I
am running the guide plates on stock 7.4 big block.

The new set-up added a Procharger, Edelbrock Alum. heads and
a bigger cam. I am staying with the Crane roller set-up and will
be firing it up in a week or so....

I'll let you know how it turns out...

As a side note:
I know everyone is the expert about valve lash (except me),
so Crane said to use a one turn addition at zero lash. This helped
me in the past to keep them quiet. Is that what everyone else
is using????

I have heard from crane and comp to run between 1/2-1 turns...
