More valvetrain noise with hydrarev?

Has anyone noticed a increase in valvetrain noise with the installation of a hydra rev kit? This is a new engine so im paranoid of the loud valvtrain noise Im getting.

It sounds like the valves need to be adjusted. I ran with a Comp XE cam and a rev kit. I believe that the rockers need to be adjusted to zero lash + 1/8 turn. Try to set the valves after the engine has been warmed up.
