Noisy rocker arm?

When I worked at a Ford dealer in the late 70s the 351c400m engines had issues with valve guides being sloppy. These were New engines still under warranty. Sounded like a bad lifter or rocker. Any thing done to your heads along that line like guides?
Yes, the heads were rebuilt by a machine shop. They were pretty rusted out, so they needed all new valve guides and seats.
