Default Lifters getting stuck

hey everyone.

I got my motor done here It is a 5.7 4 bolt main.I put vortec heads, GM TBI performer manifold, and a comp cams extreme energy cam which came with lifters. Also they gave me the cam lube with the cam and i got some lucas cam break in stuff with the zinc and i put some 10w-30 motor oil. I am havinga problem with the lifters making a ticking noise but it does randomly. I found the cam lube to be very thick and also the lucas to be thick. DOes anyone think this could be causing my stuck lifters

Maybe some of the lube has clogged an oil jacket or something.
