You have done the most difficult part (outside of a clean room) - replacing the circuit board.
This site has some tips (remove spaces around the dot)
www.securedatarecovery . com/blog/hard-drive-clicking
The last resort is to send it to a data recovery company, like the one above or eg ontrack . com
I believe some have a no fix no fee policy, and if they recover any data will quote you a price for its recovery saved onto another disk, so you can then decide if it worth it.
