Default Valvetrain Noise?

Ok heres the deal if I go wot, at about 4000rpm or maybe a little more than 4 I get a "ticking noise" or "flutter" but it doesnt really sound like a vaccum or exhaust flutter like an AIR leak. It sounds like its in the head, a spring? I have no idea but if someone has any pointers to check for or what to look for or previous mishaps let me know please, Btw it happens all the way up the power band and only gets more brutal. Sounds like my engine is going to blow?! so I never take it even close to redline anymore. Im planning on doing a cam with springs and pushrods, do you think it might be able to fix the problem.?

Any info greatly appreciated.
