Does a New Valve Have a 'Break-In' Period

[anon1]

Hello,

350Magnum needed a new valve and also had a complete valve job done to both heads.

Should the valve that was replaced be making noise? Does it take time to quiet down?

Thanks.

No and No. Somethings not adjusted properly

Was it making the noise right after you had them rebuilt or soon after? May need to check and make sure none of the rocker arms are loose.

What is the oil pressure on startup? Engine at operating temperature?
