I don't think they should be any louder than a set of properly lashed factory rockers if they have hydraulic lifters.

Now, if you have solid lifters, they tap like crazy, so they will be alot louder than any hydraulic lifter should be. The rockers, if properly lashed, wont sound any different than roller rockers if they are on hydraulic lifters.

Cam-Newb,

Yes.

No.

Mine make no more noise than the stock plain-end rockers. If I turn off the audio, I can still hear the injectors clicking instead of rocker noise.
