tight tappets dont make noise .....valve adjustment time? also if your mixture screw needs to be out more than 2 1/2 turns you could have a worn throttle shaft, poor sealing of intake gaskets or a cracked manifold

looking fantastic man good progress. did you take it around the block with no hood or fenders ?

acording to the canadian eme manual it should
