Is this to much tick or normal

I know this topic has been beaten like a Dead horse but I'm just worried. It's a 2013 Caprice with a sloppy stage 2 cam (.585/.585 228/230), summit racing ls7 lifters, summit racing 7.400 hardend pushrods, stock rockers, and comp cams 26918 valve springs. Here is a video of it running.

The tick also increases as rpm increases I would assume that's normal too but I'm not sure

it sounds like a cammed LS. it's actually kinda quiet if you ask me. stick a fast and headers on there and you will be like WUT.

usually a loud exhaust and the choppy idle will drown out the valve train, noise, though, unless you stick your face right up by the engine.

I plan on upgrading my exhaust to be louder so I guess that will be the fix!

bro you did everything else right but you some how left out upgraded rockers, you DEFINITELY need to upgrade them. I'm running basically the same stuff you have in ya rig, but I have comp push rods not summit racing and mine doesn't sound like yours, t it's a lil noisy but nothing to worry about especially when I'm doing the bottom end at some stage this year so will freshen up everything else or replace if Need be
