get a stethoscope or something to try to localize where it is coming from. I am not framiliar enought with the 4.6 valvetrain to be much help. proably not a great thing if it gets louder when you rev it. did you ask Dss if they will come fix it if they were wrong? Or did they at least explain why there is a ticking? I don't mind a technical explination but hate hearing "oh it is just like that" would give me pause.
