Recently my single cam started making loud clicking noises that gets faster as the rpm's go up. any ideas what this could be?

check your oil, if thats good check for oil pressure (oil pump)

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)
