Weird Tick after timing belt changed.
Reply #1 –
Something in your valve train. After my timing belt broke I had a broken HLA (Lifter). I actually had 2 of them broken, just one was broken completely in half down in the head. I would strongly suggest you go ahead and check everything under that cam cover. It's a good time to upgrade to a Boport 1.1 cam or, at the very least, do a ranger roller swap. You can pick up the reconditioned roller Followers from Boport and the cam from Autozone. The Ranger cam takes a bit off the top end and puts it all down stairs, but, with a little tweaking on the timing you can get a good bit of the power back. The ranger cam is smaller but the Bo-Port 1.1 cam will give you about 15 horses over the stock cam, the wide band HLA's will keep everything smooth and with it being a roller cam, no more metal being shaved in your engine. The cam will probably out live the car at that point. Those ticks from the valve train can take a toll on your power band and your engine as a whole.
