BTW..if you want to hear a lot of top end noise...just listen to a 5 valve audi turbo motor and you'll hear "click click" all the time....oil restriction to the head because of bottom end clearance issues

ive sold 1000's of hydraulic lifters for the mpv's 626's and miata, they switched to manual valves cause they are quieter

quite a few actually, full race motors need longer valves because you coil bind a normal height spring with a 546 cam
