valvetrain noise
It's hard to tell without hearing them. But if you can tell that one is noisier than the others, that could indicate a problem whereas if they are all equally noisy, a problem is less likely.

Pro-Mags are generally louder than other rockers. Also like stated above if they all sound the same I would not worry, but if one is really making a loud tapping noise you need to look at them and see what is going on.
My pro-mags are just slightly louder than stock, but they are the Non Self Aligning rockers which are supposed to be quieter from what I understand. With the hood down, you don't hear them at all.
Are yours Self Aligning?

Everybody at the shop where I had the car dynoed today told me all the noise is piston slap.
According to the engine builder at a pretty reputable nationally known shop around here forged pistons + floating pins = low RPM piston slap. He told me not to worry about it.
Dan, they are non self aligning.
