Default Cloyes Timing Chain Adjusters

I replaced timing chains/adjusters/tensioners with a new set from cloyes.

My question is about the timing chain adjusters they use. Anyone have a problem with them ticking at idle?

They are plastic, and to me see to rely more on an internal spring to adjust tension rather than oil like the stock units.

Just wanted to get some feedback on them, and if you guys would reccomend replacing them with trickflow or stock while I'm rebuilding the engine.

(Daily driver rebuild not race/track)
