I doubt timing has anything to do with it, and definitely not the springs in your dist. It has nothing to do with your flywheel or pullys being too light, no such thing as being too light. If you're sure, (and sometimes it's hard to tell) the ticking is comming from down below, check starter/flywheel alignment. Might have to look under your car while it's running. Check rocker adjustment as well. It helps to have a mechanics stephascope to find odd noises. Sometimes you just got to keep searching, and good luck with those webbers.
