whats this tick??

ok i kept thinking it was the roller rockers, but i set them up right, turned the motor and did each one at the bottom of each lobe and slowly tightened them until the push rod was tight then torqued to 23lbs while each lifter was pushed down about 1/4 to 1/3 of the way. when i first started the car for about 10 minutes (this was after a head and cam swap mind you) it sounded fantastic then slowly this tick started and it got louder. well yesterday i started her up and let it warm up a little then revved it up to about 2100 and held it there and the tick kinda went away then started again.... then went away. im now thinking it could be the lifters. im confused on this :shrug:
