I changed a bad rocker arm cause the lifter was ticking. Now It's ticking again. I don't know if it's the same one but it's anoying. What is the culprit here? Is it too much rpm's? I don't redline it. I get about to the 5500 mark and shift.

EDIT: I posted this in the KA section but noone answered.

there could be stuff blocking the path of oil up which could result in the restricted flow and could be causing this. what type of oil are you using and how many miles on what I'm assuming is your ka24e?
