What valve adjustment method do you use? My car sounds better with the current
technique for adjustment so I think it can make a difference.

Solid and flat. Use an oil with adequate amounts of phosphorous and zinc,
possibly a higher viscosity (15-40, 15-50, ........), and a valve adjustment
may help.?
Seems more than a few R engined roadster owners are having a tough time
eliminating the tick, tick noise and are just adjusting to the least noise
level........?
myself included......?
