Question about tick I have... Alright.... I've noticed a tick that I get after driving the car really hard.
The first time I noticed it was at the track. The car sounded fine when I got to the track, but after my second run, I really noticed the tick. I didn't run the car anymore that night.
After a few days of regular driving the following week, the sounded fine.. no more tick..
Am I hearing a lifter thats on its way out. The tick is very faint now.
The car has hardened pushrods, so I know they aren't bent. All the other mods are in my sig..

I'm wondering if its a lifter on it's way out. I'm gonna have to pull the heads to repair some stuff. Just wondering if I should change lifters also.
