I have a ticking as well. 2011 SLT 5.7. I can hear it when I drive beside something and the sound echos into the cab.

^Im with him if its doing it a ton and loud bet you have a manifold issue. The hemi tick is not very loud and its just a steady tick tick tick.

norsman, I have a loud tick with my 07' hemi also. Mine goes away after it warms up so I'm betting its either a cracked exhaust manifold or loose manifold bolts. If yours dissipates when it warms up then its an exhaust manifold issue. I wouldn't think a PVC issue would cause ticking though?
