You guys arent gonna believe this but my dad my told me that two of the spark plug wires had a vibration when touched...So I took one of them off and decided to check the spark plug and it was loose!!I unscrewed it with my fingers!!and the one next to it was damn loose also..I then tightened them without using a swivel adapter which was the reason the plugs were loose in the first place.. I then started the car and I couldnt hear the tick..

O yea the pushrods were bent ,Guess I had two "Ticks"..

its hard to describe a noise to someone that cant hear it..... but from what you were saying with it being kinda low on the drivers side i was leaning to something more external than an internal problem. glad you got it fixed. now learn how to shift and dont miss anymore gears.lol hahaha
