I'm hearing a ticking noise around the head and I've changed lifters, and installed the kiggly racing Hla regulator, and it's still ticking. Cold start oil pressure is around 80 and once warmed up its around 20-30 , deleted the balance shafts too
 
Just because you changed em doesnt mean they still won't tick on a cold start up. How long till it goes away?
Its pretty much always ticking and sometimes fades out but then returns even when warmed up
 
Good pressure, but wonder if there's something with the rocker rail where oil pressure isn't feeding the rockers too well to prevent the ticking... Unless he put in 3G lifters were the ports are too big to hold that 20-30 lbs of pressure.
