Possible solution to ticking lifters...
Ive noticed that there are several companies who make solid slack adjusters. I wonder if its possible to use them with hydraulic cams or if you need a special cam. This might be a simple answer to the ticking lifter issue. Just curious. RRR

That ticking noise is from mitsu's engineer. It's a mechanical language from the engine tell you; "YoUR CAr Is HeLLa FasT MAn!" :P
but no.. sorry I have seen people trying many ways but the result is never conclusive for a fix.
Let us know with a brand new thread if you fnid a cure.

Look into jackson Auto Machine, or partsdinosaur. I have the latter of the 2 and the only time it ticks is when its a cold start-up. I had major ticking problems after a guy botched my cam install.

When you did my Cams I had that initial noise which lasted just a few minutes, I remember you even bleed the Hydraulic pushers.
I am just as surprised as you to find out that Edwins car that has similar mods to my car except SMC has a more severed ticking noise. I rev harder and higher than Edwins and I still hardly get that noise.
The only time I get that noise is early in the morning as soon as I started the car because the oil is still in the botton. It is inexplicable why the noise comes and go but I can tell you something, i all the 4g63 I had(5 total) the noise is always random.
I believe is a engineering design that goes along with this engine. Just my .2c
Changing te subject, I gave your number to Shadrick, he wants you to install his SMC(I hope I did not screw up by giving him your number)
