    If you're running stock steel rockers, you may have wear causing the tip of the rocker to not contact the valve stem squarely causing a light click. Some roller rockers have a tendency to make a bit of ticking noise. What are you running for rockers?
    What if the "Hokey Pokey" is what it's really all about?
