The plug was perfect so no internal issues going on.

Any all advice appreciated since right now I am moving toward parting out the car since the tick is loud and I got a good deal since I told the seller engine was shot

Thanks,

If you have a flat cam lobe, you'll never get rid of the tick unless you replace the camshaft and rocker. I don't think that the cams are that much and the job on the older V8s is a cake walk.
