The adjustment doesn't change. It is still where I set it, but it starts clattering more and I was trying other adjustments to try and see if it needed more since the adjustments I've read say 1/2 to 1 turn, so I thought I'd try that. I think the lifters are just not staying pumped up. I am wondering if it is doing any damage to the cam when it starts clattering. It is mostly when it is warmed up to around 200 degrees or more and it can be when it has anywhere between 20psi to 40 psi oil pressure (varies when in gear with foot on brake). The clattering will stop if I give it a little gas and it stays not clattering for a little while. That is why I say the lifters aren't staying pumped up.
