Ticking can be the injectors, they are loud on these cars.

Clacking is probably the hydraulic lifters. Did you have them soaking in oil while they were out of the car? If, not..in my experience they can take up to 15-30 seconds to pump up. This also is dependent on the oil weight you are using. They take even longer..as i had actually injected oil into the lifters with a syringe before reinstalling them.

As long as you have good oil pressure, it should go away.
