No, I'm not talking hi-revs or WOT. I'm taking keeping it at 2000rpms for a few minutes to build up oil pressure and ensure the lifters are properly filled with oil.
I did this back in February with the new lifters I bought. Took about 10-15minutes for them to quiet down to levels I would consider normal. I then went up and down the road driving normally (shifting before 3500rpm and accelerating via partial throttle).
Without listening to your video (i'm at work and can't see it) I want to rule out the possibility that the new lifters have not been properly 'broken in' and the noise is just the lifters.
