ticking in engine

Ok guys my engine has been built for about 4 1/2 years now and it has had a ticking noise ever since it was built. I think I figured out what it is but wanted yalls opinion. The engine has vortec heads and when i built it i did not know that you had to have the valve guide bosses milled for higher lift cams, I just changed out the springs. Could the springs be getting in coil bind and making the ticking noise. It sounds like it is on the topside of the engine and I have changed out the lifters once thinking it was them making the noise.
