Clicking sound from engine...

My 2001 F150 XLT has a clicking sound that comes from the engine. It seems to be related to the revs because it gets faster as i step on the gas. Is this normal? if not, how can I fix it?

I just found out what mine was, a spongy #1 lifter. If not
repaired soon it will swallow a push rod. I am aware of the weird
exhaust noise these things make,that was not it. This was louder and abnormal.I'm an ASE certified master tech with 23 yrs. exp. in
engine repair. I would not trust my truck to the Ford dealer
inasmuch as most of thier so called techs are apprentices.
