Are you saying the motor was quiet when you left the car with the dealer? What service was done to it?
Sucks that you are out of warranty ...............

so now its heads ....... heads/cam ........ or full boltons .
if i had my choice it would be stock, i dont need this car to be any faster

Too bad.
Do some calling around and PM a few people in here and that information which you get should go a long way toward getting you on the road to getting this matter properly and effectively taken care of.

We use a hardened PM guide and a hollow Ferrea exhaust valve in our head rework packages. They start at just $1,228 (plus return shipping). We even have core sets of Reworked LS7 heads ready to go in case you dont want any down time (we do require a refundable core deposit for the core set).
We firmly stand behind all our reworked LS7 heads.
PM, Email or give us a call
310-326-2399
p.s. we can also hook you up with a cam, head gaskets and some arp head bolts.

I am going to take a video of my z06s engine sound when at idle cold/hot starts and when driving...I hear a ticking sound but I thought it was normal which it might be. Just being fairly new to the car I want to get verification from the experts here.
BTW OP good catch man and hopefully you'll be back with no worries.
