rocker arm noise??
i just installed comp cams 1.82 ultra gold roller rocker arms and noticed the next day the engine sounded like it had louder/ticking sound at idle but when i drive off it goes away, under the hood at idle it sounds fine and normal but when i bend down towards the front tire it sounds more pronounced, i'll have to check my long tubes for and leaks. just wondering if they are or should be louder than stock?

i did not check, car is stock head and stock cam, it does have patriot extreme dual gold springs and hardened stock length pushrods, and i just put on the comp cams 1.82 roller rockers since i am going in for a dynotune next week figured i would do the poor mans cam swap by swaping to a larger ratio rocker arm..
