is the noise coming from the front/back, does it sound like metal hitting something or plastic?

might just wanna tight some bolts up around the area u think its coming from and that may stop it. unless its ur motor then it might require a little more work than that.

Do you have aftermarket exhaust installed? Might be an exhaust leak somewhere, even if you dont have aftermarket still might be, i know i have wrong size gaskets for my headers so its giving me a ticking noise. Guess wasnt supposed to use the better gaskets lol, so now i have to order Pacesetter ones.

well this noobs right, it might be an exhaust leak. exhaust gasses flow faster than you think, so you might overlook it and think its something mechanical. but aarons right we need more detail as to what its coming from. it might be a valve or even knock.
