Default Re: 351 v6 noisy?

Update: I found in my service manual that the clearance along the rail for those 4 rockers is .030", which is about what I have. When I slide them back an forth, the "clang" it makes is what I am hearing (pretty sure) At idle, is it common for those to move back and forth?
I also read where they want the valve clearance adjusted with the engine running. That must be interesting to do. Thanks for any additional thoughts.
