Never really got under my car while it was running since I did headers and full exhuast I thought I may have heard a small exhaust leak here but I could be wrong as I know lt's will transport more sound of the engine and produce "header tick" all the bolts are tight mls gaskets were used and no codes are being thrown to indicate an oxygen leak and theres no carbon buildup anywhere. Im pretty sure everything is ok but just checking before i make a road trip tomorrow. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rlaBeDDs52I

I noticed after I installed my headers that it was a little "tin canish" for a couple heat cycles. It may go away after a couple heat cycles.

lol these have been on for a few months when I first installed them I had a spark plug loose and it def sounded different, just like an exhaust leak this to me just sounds like the rhythm of the headers because its not as fast or isolated the top of the motor is dead quiet too whereas with any exhaust leak I heard it from under the hood also.

Not too uncommon on LS1s...some people theorize the thinner wall of the header allows more noise transmission from the valve events, which would be a ticking sound.

Sounds like normal header noise to me.
