The ticking isn't lifter noise since the SOHC 3.2L V6 doesn't have any. The ticking is caused by the valve lash adjusters not fully extending due to varnish build up inside the adjusters. Revving the engine simply causes an increase in oil pressure thereby forcing the valve lash adjuster to extent "fully".
