In part. One of the epiphanies I had while being frustrated trying to quiet
the valvetrain in mine was oil level. I think most of the clattering valves in
Corvairs is due to aerated oil. When I was over the 'full' line, things were
quiet. As the oil level approached the 'add' line, things got a LOT noisier.
So, keep the engine full, make sure the pickup doesn't suck ANY air. and
probably a better than stock oil pan will help the air to float out before the
oil is picked up. I did all of this, and I no longer had valvetrain noise!
