Late model motors have hydraulic lifters, you shouldn't have lifter noise.....unless you have a collapsed lifter. Then just replace it.

My bike was dead quiet for the first 52k. I put in Andrews 26G's then. They were said to be quiet cams. I have since learned otherwise and have spoke to several others with the same result. My bike sounds like a diesel once it gets hot. I have swapped lifter brands, adjusted pushrods with way and that, and added a Baisley spring. Nothing resolved it. 12k miles now after my cam swap, I don't really pay much attention to it anymore.

The delphi lifters are noisey,esp at certain rpms,AMDs were much quieter in comparison.

I think you may mean tappet or rocker arm noise? But maybe it is lifter noise. My 2006 was pretty quiet till the dealer installed a set of screamin eagle cams then I was perplexed to hear all this lifter/valve noise. They said that was normal. I was wondering if adjustable pushrods would fix the noise....
