Please help with ticking noise

Yes, thread started in 2010 but still 2017 I got this issue.

I have experienced similar ticking after engine overhaul. Usually it is a lifter that isn't fully bled. It usually resolves it self.

Forgot to mention that after about 800 miles of driving the ticking is still there, the engine also have new stamped rockers.
The bottom is untouched.
