Default nothing to do, so i should accomplish this

well, my rockers are noisy (pretty sure its them) and im gonna tackle this problem. im running 10-30 mobil 1 so in case anyone asks. im thinking of just pulling the VCs and tightening them to see if it helps. when i checked before i was able to spin the pushrods somewhat. im positive it isnt a collapsed lifter since its not hurting performance and oil pressure. any other tricks you guys have in mind? i want to get it idling quiet like an LS1 again.

oh yea, i KNOW when i go to 1.6RRs im gonna go nuts from the ticking

Yea my 1.6's are loud but not unbearable by any means.

That Mobile 1 10-30 is considered kinda thin too though. If your confident in your self then adjust them. Shoebox has a good writeup on it too.

i ran 20-50 and it still ticked. so the oil is ruled out.

I say adjust them since it will be free to you and see if that fixes it.

adjustment seems to be the key being as Oil Pressure is still up
