Valvetrain noise is the noise generated from the valvetrain (rockers, pushrods). When you upgrade to aftermarket valvetrain components, they can get noisy. Self-aligning roller rockers are notorious for being noisy. The noises you will hear are the roller tips as well as the rocker roller "bouncing" off the sides of the valve.
