I just installed this hydraulic roller cam and it seems that there is quite a bit of valve train noise. Is this normal for roller cams? This kit uses the stock rocker arms and came with hydraulic roller lifters, pushrods and timing set.
No I did not. He said I did not have to bother with the preload adjustment since I'm using the stock rocker arm assembly and with the pushrods he sent me. I'll give him a call tomorrow.
Haven't heard of a Weber roller cam before .... and I am looking at roller cams myself (Isky - Crane - Erson - Comp. etc..) so can you give me email or other address for Weber cam guy ... I luv making comparisons before I unload the Gold Plastic.

I have the same roller cam and have very little noise. With the hood open you can hear a little, but by NO means is it loud. My mechanic also told me that it is quieter than the ATR cam which is pretty quiet also.
Weber roller here too and I have gotten several comments about how quite it is. I do have the T&D roller rockers also and had to get custom length pushrods for it all to go together as recommended.
weber and another gn mechanic told me to run it for a while until the oil gets hot and thin. There may be air pockets in the lifters still so that is what I will do and if it still clicks alot, time for longer pushrods. BTW weber told me there would be a little noise, but the noise I have is quite obvious.
