the ticking sound may be valve lash, you'll have to check your valve clearances and compare them to the tolerances specified in the FSM. Basically you get a feeler gauge and see how much clearance you have from the cam and the lifter when the valve is completely closed (and the cam is not touching the lifter at all of course)
