I've had good luck using Lucas oil stabilizer for eliminating lifter tick. After a long storage period, without Lucas I would hear my lifters for a good 5-10 miles of driving. With Lucas, little to no lifter noise at all.
I know many don't like oil additives. I get it, that's fine. But I base my decision on years of experience using Lucas in my other engines. One of them had 1.3 million miles with the original turbo and very little bearing and ring wear.
