OH NO! Strange sudden ticking noise

This is the first abnormal problem that I have had with this car since I've had it. It is an 86 9KT with 239,000 miles (doesn't act like a 239k car though). The car runs excellently and hasn't given me a single worry since I've had it. Today I went to the store, and heard this ticking noise under the hood. It sounds like maybe lifter noise, or injector noise, but it's pretty loud. It IS NOT the APC solenoid. It sounds like it is coming from under the valve cover, and the rate which it ticks increases with engine speed. The only thing I have done recently to the car was re-charge the A/C. Anyone have any ideas?
