I'm a real muscle car fan, myself. I own a 1981 350 Z28 and my uncle owns a 69 Chevelle SS 396.
There were hydraulic lifters in these engines and all lifters typically make noise. Some engines you here it more than others. I believe the 454s had a slightly different lifter designs than most other big blocks and they just happened to transmit noise better.
