i did a 440 kit with cam rev box yadyadyad i ended up not likeing the magnum cam i statated with so i replaced it with a hot cam both cams are stage 2 but this ticking nosie started when i put in the hot cam i have adjusted the valves many times but they always seem to be good so i am thinking it's the cam chain any idea's???????

yep, all of my hotcam engines tick much louder than stock, i evenm use stock valve clearances on mine to try and stop, it does quiet it some but still tickin (atleast you'll know that something bad has happened if it ever stops ticking) ;)
