How much for new tappets?

Car  MK1 Clio 16v
Anyone have any idea how much it would cost to have some new tappets fitted to an F7R engine? Mine taps like f**k and sounds like a tractor!

The engine has had 275 profile cams installed by GDI, not sure if this has any bearing on the situation?

I'm not too clued up about the innards of engines, but would like a smooth engine!

You can hear the engine in this clip:

Holy crap thats loud.

New ones from ebay are cheap, cant remember how much they are.

Are you running verniers as you'll have to retime the cams when you change the tappets as the cams have to come out.
