mmichels,
 
The clicking of a hot 260 engine at idle is usually due to tappet wear and  
low oil pressure. If after using Tom's method of adjustment you still have the  
clicking problem, you can eliminate it by replacing the oil pump with a high  
flow pump (not high pressure) and heavy duty pump drive shaft. This can be 
done  in the car by just dropping the oil pan.
