Default Newman solid tappets

Hi all. Recently fitted the phase 4 newman zvh cam , along with some group a 214bigger steel valves and solid tappets , and a bigger throttle body , with a bigger air bypass for my ALS. Also fitted a new one bigger one peice billet compressor wheel in turbo . After covering 112 miles had it mapped made 364bhp @31.9psi we've now raised he rev limiter up to 7200 as it still pulled strong at 7,000rpm.running spot on . After now covering 364 miles the newman tappets sound like a Jhon deer tractor !! Obviously it's time to re adjust ??? I'm guessing ?? I'm doing them tomorow . I hope yet won't need re adjusting for another 10,000 miles after this !!? Anyone else had much experience with using these everyday on the road ? Thanks in advance
