we have all been there it depends when u say a slight tick all the time or just at start up.If its at start up very common if u have it after warm up might be a problem.Our engines are noisy they sound like old sewing machines.

Do you have headers?
headers are thinner than the stock manifolds and allows more noise through. It often sounds like a tick. Slightly loose header bolts or worn header gaskets can also cause a tick.
