Nathan,
I have had the same problem with my '97 850GLT (Turbo Lite). After much investigation, I have concluded that it is one of the 20 lifters not operating correctly after the engine heats up.
After I run the car for awhile in hot weather, turn it off to visit a store, then come back and start it, usually, it will click until I get some air moving past the radiator. On my last oil change, I tried Castrol Syntec and after 1000 miles, the ticking returned. No clicking is heard during the winter months at any time.
Mine has been doing this for some three years now and it seems to cause no problems. Just embarrassing!
ood Luck.
