I am assuming the loud valve train is attributed to me running Rhodes vari-duration lifters on the exhaust valves, set at .030, and my roller rockers.

It has been a very long time since I installed a set of Rhodes lifters. I don't recall adjusting lash (play) when installing them. I thought the Rhodes got set with preload just like any other hydraulic lifter. They are noisy as heck until the engine revs and the lifters pump up. Regardless, I think almost all of your valve train noise is due to the Rhodes lifters, and that a change in rocker arms will be a wasted effort.

It sounds like it runs like a raped ape. Congrats.
