Default Noise is relative with 216

Hi Mike

The 216 chev is a relatively noise engine even with all new parts, but they keep running. You really do not hear the difference hydraulic valve lifters made until you listen too the engines side by side with solid lifters.

If your engine is not smoking and runs good then would not worry too much about the valve guides.

Cheers Phil
