Definetly this. Did you use too much dielectric grease by chance?

What plugs and wires did you use just out of curiosity?

2fast4u1989

Did you make sure that #8 spark plug is torqued all the way into the head?

2fast4u1989

yea they are all in there tight, i dont hear any air hisssing past the spark plugs. the exhaust sounds like it has tick to it

Well it's either the plugs or the wires if it worked before and that's all you did. Either the wires are not seated on one end or the other or they're routed improperly...or a cracked or bad plug which I doubt. Good luck.

Does the exhaust tick sound like a header leak or what?
