    6.0 swap, getting a ticking noise. please step in

    Ok, I'm still getting a ticking noise even after i changed the lifters. It definitely sounds like valvetrain but I need some opinions. I hope the vid is clear enough for some.



    to describe it, it has a faint ticking at idle and gets loud when gassed. Its really noticeable on decel. The first night my brother and i had it out for tuning we did a quick burst we floated the valves at not even probably 55-5600.
    could it be flat lobes on the cam? The old lifters had some scorching marks on the roller but nothing drastic from what i seen. And cylinder 1 and 2, the rockers didn't seem to come up as high as the others when i rotated the block
    Thanks

    lol, I'd rather it sounds like a healthy 6.0 w/exhaust though. Its heart breaking, I just want the swap done already

    I did a 6.0/80e swap and the only thing i changed was the heads (put 799's on it). I bought the motor used w/36k on it.
