03/04 COBRA HEAD TICK Explained by STIEGEMEIER

[dynobobstieg]

The explanation to the cylinder head tick is as follows:​

There were some Terminators that had Valve seat run out in excess of .006 to .008 on the exhaust side.

The Valve stem deflects in the guide and ticks. The factory valve work early on was not always round.

The exhaust seat material is extremely hard and tooling deflection occurs.
Terminators that suffer this seat run out experience a tick at 25,000 mile mark on driver side and 35,000 on passenger side.

I have not seen a Valve failure because of this ever and not all Cobra's develop the tick.

K-liners are the best fix.
