That was one of the reasons they were spec’d out for the ram, to REDUCE noise, not increase. Noisy lifters have something going on. Other noises have been confused for lifter noise, a few have heard tapping thinking it was lifters but when pressure was applied to the belt tensioner the noise went away. Check there first.Hydraulic lifters are almost always quieter than their mechanical counterparts. The ability of the lifter to pump up to zero lash regardless of temperature accomplishes this.
