Icon2 Louder than normal skunk2 valvetrain

A while ago I did a 4th gear pull on the highway. After the pull I noticed a ticking in my head area. My oil level was kind of low the following morning when I checked after noticing the ticking. I have pro 1 cams, pro springs, retainers, and valves. Fresh head build. Car is tuned with Neptune eprom. Recently ajusted valves to .006 in and .007 ex and the ticking is still there. It sounds like it's just in either the 1 or 2 cylinder but i could be wrong.It doesn't get any quieter after the car gets warmer. Not sure what a piston and valve hitting sounds like, but it does sound like something may be touching. If that makes sense. Cams I beleive were set to 0 before the tune. Camn anyone offer any helpful suggestions to what the prob may be. thanks

make a compression test to see if you could have a sligh bent valve
did you re check your valve lash since the noise coming
