and also make sure the little round disc shims on top of the lifters are around the right way the oil will only flow if they are in correctly and they wont effect the oil pressure

Basically the car sounds like s**t until i pulled the lifters down and saw the issue, now ive got a slight ticking noise but its nothing compared to when shims were the wrong way.
