<VV> Lifter noise?

[Matt Nall]

FIRST!!  take a compression test on all 6 cylinders...

  you most likely  broke a  pushrod,  rocker arm,  or dropped a valve 
seat..

I had to lash the valves this weekend and I had 1 lifter that would not 
lash. I
removed that 1 lifter and disassembled cleaned it up(did find trash in 
it).
Reassembled relashed the valves. Car ran great! Took the car out for a 
spin came
out of 1st gear and got a real bad tapping noise! what do you guys 
think? Do you
think the lifter collapsed agian? Have a slight miss also.Dont' think 
its a
rod? Can you put new lifters in with a old cam? Not sure what to think.
