Default Ticking noise

Not sure if this is an exhaust leak or what it might be.

Brand new lifters/rockers/pushrods/oil change. It only does it after warming up and at lower RPMs: 1500-2500, after that I can't hear it because of the exhaust.

I'm gonna try and check the header gaskets when she cools down tomorrow but other than that I already tightened the flange from the header to the mid-pipe.

What all is done to this engine? What lifters are in it? What preload are they? Did you measure them or just guess?

Did it just start randomly making the noise or has it done this since you installed the new parts?
