Ticking noise
Need a little help chasing down a little tick.
Only does it when warm after a drive(EOT 190+) goes away after cooling down. Good oil pressure just changed oil as well. Does *not* get louder with RPM, can only hear at lower RPM.
Only things I could think of is lifter tick, injector stick, or exhaust leak because you can hear a tick under the car right by the headers. Maybe something is tapping the firewall.. I don't know at this point because I have yet to get under the car and examine it.
Car was recently just put back together with brand new valve train, ls7 lifters, oil pump, new Cam and timing chain ect. Stock rockers w/ upgrade. Heads have new springs and fresh out of the machine shop.
It's gotten a little louder over time, though it doesn't get driven much.
