Lifters or belt tensioner

I'm asking you this question bc few of you had that problem.

I read a huge thread about rebleeding lifters. I have done that right after I put in my cam. The ticking sound doesn't go away when the car is warmed up. Ticking is loud and it's not rod knocking.

Is it possible that it's belt tensioner causes the tick? How is that possible?

What should I do next? I don't want to start buying lifters if they are fine.

How can I find out if belt tensioner is bad?

Thanks guys.

There is a tool that you can use to test the belt to see if the tension is set right. What it does is, pushes the belt down an it will give you a reading. Now were to get ahold of this tool, that is another question.
