Default LS1 tick! Lifter?

https://youtu.be/9Gnp35sq4Sw

I just put this motor together. It is a rebuilt short block. Btr stage 2 n/a cam with the dual springs and btr push rods. I installed the LS7 lifters with new trays. This noise is bugging the hell out of me. The car runs strong and the noise doesn't seem to be hurting any thing right now. Is this just a normal noise in these engines? Should I be worried?

Have you checked the exhaust for leaks, what's the preload for the push rods?

I haven't check for an exhaust leak yet. It just doesn't really sound like one to me. I will check just to make sure though.
