Ok my TA is making a ticking noise and Id like to figure out what it is before I dive in. It usually is very faint or non-existant at a cold start but gets louder as the engine warms up. The engine occasionaly idles SLIGHTLY rough after warm up. Oil pressure is still good warmed up (20 psi) and car still runs GREAT. It seems to be getting louder since it originally started

Lifter? Bad plugs or wires? Pushrods?

I'm having something similar... I'm pretty sure mine is an aging lifter. Looking for similar input in my thread as well.

check for an exhaust leak, an exhaust leak will usualy be heard more when its fully warmed up

No need to because Im doing the bolt on mods at the end of this month as well as new wires and plugs and a couple other things. If its still there then I will worry about pulling the heads. But yeah thought of that. Just not too worried because Im already modding it so it will get all new gaskets

It is a bomb. Get to the Choppa! Prob lifter tick though. What better bolt on mod than a new cam? Wait maybe thats bolt IN. Well in any case good luck. If you need lifters, we have them by the Gm boxful.
