where is the clicking coming from? If its from the top, it could be a collapsed rocker arm. If your clicking noise is near the bottom of your engine, change the oil and look for light metal particles floating around...

collapsed hydraulic lifters. either get new ones or pull them out and re-bleed them (pain in the asshole)
