so today I noticed a noise coming from my engine from the drivers side earlier. I don't think its a lifter tick though. there is already a lifter tick on my drivers side and these 2 noises are very different. this noise seems to loud and to slow to be a lifter tick. it is consistent with rpm though. the more it revs the faster the tick is. it almost sounds like a kid with a thick baseball car in the spokes of his bike. im not noticing any difference in how it drives or anything, no lights flashing, it drives just fine. I did remove the clutch fan and put a hemi fever tune with a 180 t-stat a few days ago but truck ran fine since then. could it be a bad exhaust leak? it had an oil change about a month ago and dodge said there was a small exhaust leak. could the noise be that same leak, just bigger?
