[QUOTE="04turbomustang, post: 15715575, member: 188371"] ticking from the top end on a fresh build can also be cause by loose spark plugs allowing a tiny bit of compression by (this will sound exactly like a collapsed/sticky lifter) and also leaking header/exhaust manifold can cause a tick noise. Sometimes these 2 things will go away when the engine warms up and the metal expands, but if bad enough can continue even when warm. Just and idea of something to check. Get a stethoscope and try to pinpoint the area the noise is coming from. [/QUOTE]
