hydraulic lifters

Hate to sound ignorant, but does the C32 have hydraulic lifters?

I thought as much. Thanks. We're replacing the gaskets today so I suppose we'll find out. I hear a faint ticking on the left side of the motor (right side if your sitting in the drivers seat) thats coming from one of the cylinders. Someone mentioned the some adjusting could be done unless the lifters where hydraulic.

I tried the Techron (though only one bottle) on a full tank and it didn't really seem to help much
