It came today, while driving, then I went to CompUSA for a new power supply to fix this puter, and on the way back the tick went away again.
Weird.

I would say to check the flex plate. The tranny shop could have damaged this when it was out. The flexplate is between the engine and tranny. It is the "coupling". It bolts to the crank shaft near the inside diameter of the flexplate and at the outside diameter of the flexplate it bolts to the torque converter. The bolts on the outside diameter of the flexplate have to be removed to take out the tranny. The four bolts are removed through an access hole near the back of the engine sort of under where the throttle cables connect to the throttle body.
There are also two alignment pins between the engine block and tranny housing. These two pins have to be in place to properly align the engine and transmission. If not the flexplate will wear out. If the noise comes again get under the X and listen. If it's the flexplate it will be louder under the X. There is a clear path through the air for the noise to get out under there. I think that is possible from your hard driving and downshifting that noise can come and go.

I will give it some "spirited" driving again and see if the noise comes back. If it does I will check and listen underneath. If it seems to be the flexplate, I will take it to Affordable.
As of now, I will try to settle this insurance thing within the next half hour, and write myself a note to get a switch, among other miscellaneous things I will have on my to-do list. I will thank you for the input.
