Cosworth 272's
 

i got them in my car after 3 months of driving i got a tick the last night its in shop now but any one know what it might be i think its valve or spring and retainer it ticks faster when you give it some gas... any help thanks

any one got any advice shop thinks its a rocker arm but they dont know for sure i dont want to buy something its not any one....... i got 272 cosworth cams on stock valve terain they said it woud run fine no problem if any one has any help let me know please thanks

The tick maybe the lifters...

^^ +1 Not bleeding the lifters is notorious for causing a ticking sound.

the shop that did it is dyno comp here in az they said you dont have to bleed lifters if your not changing them but dont you have to do it any ways cause you installed bigger cams
?

Theres your answer..

ok so definantly need to tell them to do that thye said it sounds like a rocker arm so i will tell them to bleed first thanks guys

Find a new shop...

I agree. Bleeding the lifters is a basic MUST for any cam install. It isn't even very difficult to do. They should know better.

so i got my car back today after paying 400 for lifters and install and that wasnt the tick they are now telling me its a bearing or piston pin its loud and when you rev it gets louder

hnmm did u double check to make sure the new lifters were properly bled , if the noise started right after cams its gotta be a valvetrain issue.

$400 FOR LIFTERS! You could have purchased a new set of JAM 3mm for $175. Need to find a new shop and have it looked at....Vivid maybe.

99% chance it is your lifters

That does not sound right. If you want PM me and I am sure we can figure it out for you.

Thanks,

the 400 was labor and lifters lifters were 150 the total price after lifters and labor was 400
