Dave-
 Ignition timing.
Not cam timing.
Re-read post.

  Uh, that wouldn't be clicking lifters, it would be valves tagging the
  pistons.  I've seen this done on a car that came into the shop once and all
  we did is adjust the cam timing back a little with no adverse effects but
  you definately pushing the envelope advancing that much!!

  > I over-advanced my ignition timing by a few degrees the other day, and my
  lifters started making a ticking noise when I start the car for a few
  minutes.  Why would advancing the ignition timing make the lifters tick?  Or
  is it completely unrelated?  I'm gonna set it back tonight to see if they
  still tick, but I just wanted to get anyone's input first.  Thanks.
