Matt could be right. He usually is. But it seems to me that if you turn
off your warm engine with the valve clicking, the next cold start would also
have the valve clicking until they fill with oil.
I wonder if possibly you are mis-adjusting them?

What does it mean when the valves click on my 65 Monza when warm but not
cold? I've adjusted t hem to no avail while the motor was running and warm..
No noise when she starts up but after 4 minutes its clickety clack

Most likely low oil pressure.... below 7 psi.... Put a cheap mechanical
gauge where the oil snap switch is and check it..
