3.2, LPG converted. A few minutes into a cold start. I have the metal tensioners.

Not really, is this a cold start?
Does the ticking rise with revs?
Any codes?
It sounds like really loud injectors, maybe an LPG Issue - the same vid could be posted to LPG forums?

I had a solid lifter cam in a 454 that sounded like that at start up.
