Ticking noise that shows up AFTER it warms up

Unlike most of the other posts where the ticking appears after the engine warms up, mine shows up after the engine is warm. It could be compared to injector noise or lifters that changes with RPM but it would be the loudest injectors/lifters I've ever heard.
IF the engine is under any load to include stopped at a light, the sound is gone. Once I park it I feel the urge to shut it down because its loud enough that I feel people might start looking my direction. EGR is clean.
Help me before I trade this thing in for something I can drop a crate engine in
If it come to it, Ill post an audio clip or vid.

Fix, there could be numerous reasons throughout the engine or drive train that cam emit noises. You will have to locaize that noise with the use of a mechanic's stethoscope.
