Default Now a ticking

ok so i accidently downshifted from 3-2 @ WOT and now the cars ticking, NO SES light, sounds like its coming from the heads, passenger side near the back... it ticks like a cam would lope. Does this sound like a bent pushrod to you or what else coudl it be? Loose Rocker arm? need to know ASAP

Thanks fellas.


Oh this happened in the Camaro 6-speed it ticks @ idle, in revs, and can be heard only in 1-4th gear while driving Inside the car, unsure of outside for 5-6 but its silent then

Do the stock LS1's have pushrod guide plates? I've seen some without and some with if not are they worth gettting?
