Started my truck this morning, fired up and ran fine as usual. Pulled out of driveway and sounded like a header leaking under light throttle. Had header off other day to change starter and reused the "good" gaskets and they didn't leak. Got to work and started checking and sounds like the tick is coming through the carb. Pulled valve covers and started it. Everything looks fine, but crack throttle a bit and it ticks. Has a new Qft carb, Indy reman heads and Summit 444"hyd cam? Gonna do a compression check. Anything besides a burnt exh valve that could be the culprit. Noticed it seems awful rich at idle now too!!! Any chance I should be looking at ignition system or am I one of the unlucky ones that got a set of Indys crappy valve jobs? They have hardened seats, have around 5000 miles and ran fine til this morning. Any ideas would be helpful since I'm at work and don't have a lot of time to tear into it right now. Thanks
