Default Another Ticking noise from your engine?
Happened to me on my last 5.0, sounds kind of like the lifters or something, but does anyone know what the ticking noise is coming from the engine at all times?? I know that our 302s shake a little due to the stock cams, but if you've ever driven by a real old ford truck that is ticking really loud, you know what I mean.

what is that?

I hear two kinds of ticks, those from my valvetrain and that of a leaky exhaust header. Maybe a gasket of yours is worn or needs some retorquing?
