Big Block ticking? Flat tappet cam. Normal?

Does not sound good at all. Definitely dead on a cylinder. Make sure your adjusting them at the correct time. Valves are to loud

The proper way to adjust them is

(When the exhaust starts to open adjust the intake valve on that cylinder)

(When the intake is fully open and just started to close adjust the exhaust on that cylinder)

Here is an engine with solid a lift cam. A slight whirring noise is all you here under the hood.

I will check them in a couple weeks. The cam was ground for 1.5 lifters and I now have 1.6 ratio lifters. Is that a factor for increased noise? When you say "dead on a cylinder", what does that mean? Cause? thanks
