390 Loud noise at cruising
So I've got a 390 in my 55 f100. Recently had heads gone through, did a Crower cam and lifter kit, double roller timing set and a holly street warrior 4bbl. After about an hour of driving I noticed what sorta sounded like a failed lifter, however the noise goes away under acceleration, and when letting off the throttle and at idle. But when cruising I get a noise that sounds like a collapsed lifter. Y'all got any thoughts? I did notice that it seems to be running quite rich, and it's not pinging either. Any input is greatly appreciated!
