97 Integra GS with JDM B20B weird tick
Ok, so I bought this car with this B20B swap, its making an interesting ticking that doesnt sound like its coming from the bottom end. I know the Injectors are loud on this motor, and it probably does need a valve adjustment, but what else should I look into that could be making a tick. as far as my experience has gone a spun bearing doesnt make a tick. now the ticking is loudest when warming up but after warm up and you drive for a bit its nearly none existent. no fluid loss at all (Oil, coolant, etc) I will be honest I do probably drive this motor hard, Im used to a tuned motor that handled 9000rpm and have been revving this up to about 6-6300rpm. all input is greatly appreciated since I am also new to the B20B (apparently has a lot of silly little quirks, like weak cylinder walls) 
if you guys need any more info don't hesitate to ask.
