RE: Old parts are matched, did you?

Not knowing why you torn it down, so I'll comment on the put to gather part. If you valve train is old you have to keep the components matched. Meaning each lifter, push rod and rocker wears a certain pattern and if not matched the push rods will not spin or oil properly. This could be the noise you hear. If you didn't you can remove the valve covers start the engine and observe which push rods are spinning and which ones aren't. If they are not spinning they won't oil. May not be your problem, but I seen this done several times causing the chatter. As Ed said fill us in on the complete history, then we might come up with a solid soluation.
This thread, so far...
