Clicking sound from 0-40mph?
When I let off the gas, i hear a ticking sound when slowing down. It kinda sounds like its doing it every revolution of a tire, but cant see anything wrong with the tires? Any gut feelings?

Check your wheel weights. The type that clamp on to the edge of the rim sometimes come loose, and slide back and forth with each tire rotation.
That happened to me with a '84 T-Bird. Drove me nuts trying to figure that one out.

If it ticks mostly while turning, it is likely a front axle U joint, and repair is likely to be quite a bit more since removing the wheel bearing can be a bugger.
This thread has an execllent write up of front axle removal for ball joint removal (with photos).

P.S. 460 Weatherby- neat cartridge. I've always wanted one. What for, I don't know.
