What causes valve clatter?
Valve clatter, often heard in engines, is typically caused by excessive clearance between the valve lifters and the valve stems. This can result from wear in the valve train components, such as worn rocker arms or lifters, or insufficient lubrication. It may also occur if the engine is not properly adjusted or if the timing is off. Addressing these issues usually involves adjusting the valve clearance or replacing worn components.

Could you bend a valve when putting a new cam in if you don't loosen valve adjustment?
If your valves are way out of range you could contact the cylinder head or the piston and possibly bend the valve but it isn't likely they would be that far out of range. If you have hydraulic lifters you shouldn't have that problem. With solid lifters, be sure to slacken all of the adjustments.
