ttt anymore thoughts

how is the ticking at WOT? can you smell fumes in the engine bay? how does the oil look? can you only hear it to one side of the motor? have you bottomed out lately ?

I had the same problem but realized it was a leak from the flange from when I bottomed out in a rut while off roadin.

I heard it in person it doesnt sound anything like a lifter, If u rev it a lil bit the knock goes away.

ncravey

sounds like valve trane noise not a lifter though. maybe an exhaust leak? or a loose rocker arm?
