Just wondering for all those who bought the lt4 hotcam kit is your valve train loud - Does it have a loud ticking sound. The shop that installed my kit said it supposed to be loud.

The roller rockers in the kit will be noisier than the stock stamp steel rocker arms. They should sound sort of like a sewing machine but not be too too loud.

My 1.6 promags are noisy compared to stock. You can't here them with the hood closed. With the hood open, they should sound like a sewing machine as stated above.
