Piston slap will go away as it warms up. My 93 LT1 had a little bit and my 00 SS has it when first started up in the cold. It's annoying, but goes away within a minute or 2. If you still hear that ticking noise, it could be ignition(spark jumping) or valvetrain related. Hopefully it's not a bearing.
