Charles
the motors fine its got noisy injecters tho
Hydraulic Lifters will make noise fuel injectors don`t make noise that you can hear.
How many miles are on the engine and how often do you change your oil.
Sounds like a neglected engine I would try a full synthetic oil it has much better cleaning than dino oil.
Your lifters probably have varnish in them.
They make engine flush but the problem with using it is it will remover a lot of sludge very quickly this may plug the small oil passages and cause catastrophic failure.
The synthetic oil will slowly clean the engine and so you should change oil frequently for a few changes to remove all the crap that will be in the oil.
Also change the filter
It`s not uncommon for electronic injectors to click/tick. Without using a stethoscope the noise is at times almost indistinguishable from sticky lifters. This sound can sometimes be reduced with a pressurized (professional) injector cleaning. I`ve never seen the "in the tank" additives make any improvement. Still not sure why the OP would know this about the injectors an hour after the initial post but wonder if an oil treatment would clean it up.

Yes I have hear injectors that tick but it is different sound than a lifter don`t think I ever heard of a fuel injector that you could hear while driving.
I have never had a lifter problem but I use a high quality oil and change it often I don`t go for those 15000 mile oil changes.
Bart, You would be one of the last people on this board that I would suspect to have a serious (maintenance type) engine problem such as sticky lifters. I`m sure your vehicles are well cared for. Throwing a rod or blowing a head gasket, now that wouldn`t surprise me to hear you say.

Instead of an oil treatment per say.
If it were my car, I would drain 1/2 qt oil, add 1/2 qt of tranny fluid. Run for about 100 - 250 miles. Then do an oil filter change (good oil) run for 500 then oil filter change.
Tranny fluid being very high detergent seems to do wonders.
(what can i tell ya, i`m old)
oh yeah, gh, go look at my pic posts of lime rock, theres a few pics for you.
Sorry for the off topick

I saw the Lime Rock pictures, that is one sweet Camaro. The race fuel reminded me of the day when we would go down to the airport to get AvGas, we would mix it 3 to 1 with pump premium. It was great for the needed octane for a 12.75 to 1 compression ratio but had no toluene in the fuel. In order to make sure that the cylinder walls would stay "wet" we would mix STP oil treatment in with the fuel. Those were the days.

I knew you had a huffer. I had a Saleen with a Turbonetics on it. It had a variable boost dial at your finger tips. You could run up to 20 lbs. with the twist of a dial. I had a few chances to replace both header and head gaskets even with O-Ringed deck and heads.
