That's the best way I can describe it. It has made this annoying noise over the regular engine noise like a rattatat since day 1.  is it the lifters or what? Have the 110 engine, had the Andrews 57h cams, I believe, think it is the original lifters, the noise did not change after the other stuff did.

You're likely hearing valve train noise...  Have you informed your dealer?

I agree that what you are describing may very well be valvetrain noise.

having no idea what the sound really sounds like - i had a tick - turned out to be a crack in the exhaust.

Try the stethoscope trick with a screwdriver.
Sometimes it can give you a much better idea of where the problem is.
Gives you a bit of satisfaction when you go back to the dealer.

"I think its one of the rear lifters , could be the exhaust !"
