valve train noise
My setup when it originally came from the builder was quieter then stock. Its now about the same as stock or maybe a touch noiseir. But really you can't hear over the rest of the car.

I got a comp 224/230 with comp 918 springs and comp 7.4 pushrods and when listening real hard under the hood I got "sewing machine" noise too. I just attribute it to the comp xer lobes with fast ramp, I agree if you get a custom cam or something like an eps cam would quiet the valve train noise down.
