This head also possesses 4 sparkplug threads
Are you saying that the "tick" is actually piston slap or is this valve train noise mention above something else? Seems to me that piston slap sounds nothing like the tick plus I can see the Cobra's experiencing a good amount of piston slap because of the forged pistons but the mach's have hypercraps which don't tend to slap. Just wondering
