I recently did the 96-98 head swap,I also had a 70mm throttle body installed.I've noticed that when I give the car gas the idle is a bit to high it takes awhile for the idle to come down.Can anyone tell me what's going on or what I can do to fix it?

You're asking about the RPM's, but have you figured out the ticking noise. Javier said you might have a shot piston. Call me at work 650-857-5007.

Damn bro you know your shit so do you think it's worth spending $80.00 to get it put on a machine to see what's wrong with it?

to me no

but if you want to try it its you call
it just does not sound good like I told you
your best bet is to take off the valve cover on the passanger side and see maybe im wrong and its a lifter gone dry
