if you have bent push rods i would change them i run titanium onesin my 306 not a problem, i would think it would be more of a steady noise because it can load every time the cam rotates and pushes the lifter up you will hear it so thats why i think it would be steady, i would also check the cam lobes too just in case something happened that you may not be able to see with out removing the cam..And i would replace all the lifter too...IMO
