Yours will definately sound tappety when it runs the cam lobes off, which, being Kent, it 100% definately will.
As Christian said above!
I have munched both pipers and Kents! Proper crap! I even munched the Newman hydro lifter cam three times!! Hence why they no longer sell them. Solid lifter Newman is the only way to go or a genuine ford item.
If you choose to stay with the kent cam at least fit a magnetic sump plug as this will help collect all the swarf that will be floating around your engine.
