Changed oil, took a ride, lifter tick now. - Red 67 - 08-20-17

Morning boys. I changed my oil/filter yesterday, used Lucas 10w30 and Purolator filter. Greased everything up, washed my hands and took her for a 20 mile ride. Got home and she's ticking at idle. Flat tappet engine with slightly over stock cam. Nothing radical. Lucas is high in zinc, and 10-30 is what the previous owner said he used. Should I try 10-40/20-50?

Thanks
Matt

How is oil PSI? You should be fine with that oil

PSI is good around 40-50 at idle, closer to 80 at highway speeds. Scratching my head......
