i got a slight tick at 1500rpms, cant hear it much past 2k b/c the motor/exhaust gets too loud or the tick just isnt loud enough.
it only does it under a load, and seems to be louder when i drive it vs just power breaking it to put a load on it.
i thought i fixed it, i moved my guideplates, the rocker arms on a couple studs seemed to be too far to the left or right, i tq. the studs back down to 55ft lbs.
wear marks ontop valves look good.
not a header gasket, its coming from the drivers side and the gasket has no leakage.
i didnt hear it after i adjusted plates, had it reved in neutral all the way to 6k once. (looking for a vibration i had when i pulled the motor just a hair past 6k, thought it might have been valve float)
so i took it for a run, 1st gear pull to 6k, after the run i started hearing the tick again, so if anyone has ideas, let me know!
