Yesterday I drained the oil and replaced the oil pan gasket. Once complete and oil back in pan with no leaks. I started the car and began to hear a loud ticking. After a few mins, about 3 - 5, the ticking went away. Once I started driving it started ticking again. I then stopped and added 2 quarts of oil the ticking stopped immediately. This morning I had been driving for 30 mins and the ticking has returned. Any suggestions on what it could be and any fixes that I could perform?

Check o see how much oil in in the system you may have already done damage to the cam/lifter/rocker due to having to install 2 more quarts after repair. Pull the valve cover and check cam and rockers for wear.
