Are your headers on tight?
What did your oil pressure gauge used to read; before the problem started? (How much has your oil pressure dropped?)

Thanks. Do you find that there needs to be any adj of the lifters over time as people say, or haven't you done enough miles?

i havent had the chance to check the headers but why would loose headers cause lifter clicking?
the oil pressure was at 3 bar at idle before the problom, now it bounces around at 2 bar at idle.
between 4 and 5 bar oil pressure before problom under normal driving conditions. 5 bar under hard accleration before problom.

at 3 bar, sometimes 4 bar now under normal driving, with problom.
same for hard accleration with problom. clicking does not go away under hard accel. just bairly audible cuz of motor and wind from window open.
