Cold tick... Where to start
Replaced exhaust gaskets but the next morning tick was back. Only ticks when cold and only for the first half mile.
Top 2 tests this week are running with belt off since I am replacing the alternator.
Banging on the cats when cold.
Ticks in time with rpm but I swear I heard it go out of sync a couple times.

In that case, have you checked the others? What you describe sounds just like an exhaust leak that I had. My gaskets tend to squish out over time.
If you change them, I've had better luck with the laminated metal type that cover a pair of ports. The single perf metal/composite type lasted only a few months for me.

I have to agree slipped liner is on the far end, a cold tick is lifters or exhaust. Both will quiet out once things warm up, exhaust manifolds leaks in particular get quiet after a few minutes of running. Lifters can tick with cold oil then quiet once things get warm,they should not but sometimes they do,it was more of a problem with the old single weight oils though.
