Default Sewing machine noise??

Hey everyone, I just got done swapping out my LS6 intake from my Z and putting it into my SS. So now my 02' has the LS1 intake also i deleted all of that EGR/AIR crap and now anytime i accelerate past around 2.5K RPM i hear a noticeable sewing machine sound .... Im wondering if it has to do with my valvetrain? but i didnt even touch it, it was fine until i swapped the intake and EGR... anyone got any ideas?

Probably just the valve train, though it could be the injectors.
The stock injectors are noisy.

maybe the ls6 intake being bigger air passages is lettting out more noise that the old style you had on your ss did. just a thought. my 04 gto ticks very bad and i have the ls6 on mine.
