Mine has a very faint chatter once my engine is at operating temp. Nothing bad at all but the valvetrain is just a little noisy. From what I understand, it’s completely normal to have a little chatter when you go with a large cam and full roller rockers. It’s never negatively effected my cars performance and I checked the lash on my valves again a few weeks after the rebuild and they’re all right where they need to be.

Seems to be an LT1 thing, my '93 always had a little tappet noise at idle but I drove it for 7 years and it never got worse.

Thumbs up

You've certainly given that car a lot of love, much applause and well deserved.
I can't imagine how many hours you have in on this project.
