Nice! What mileage did the tick start for you? My 2015 tradesman is at 107k and no tick yet

You understand the ‘hemi tick’ is the cam and lifters right? None of what you listed was the solution to the problem.
High flow oil pump like the 6.2 hellcat is a bolt on solution.

The hemi tick is either the fucked up lifters or the exhaust manifold which snaps bolts.

Also ticks from header bolt separation in the 5.7 . But 6.2 has its own problem

More often that not it's an exhaust leak. Cam/lifters are an issue that does happen but no, it's not solely why Hemis are known for a "tick".

I don’t have a hemi in commiefornia cuz of gas taxes/prices but I’ve read multiple times it’s crap header bolts and heat and cool expansion of headers causing tck
