Horrible Tick

I have a HORRIBLE ticking noise after I put the MAC headers and off road Y on my car. It's a 99 so I'm thinking it could be coming from the EGR but it sure does sound like a lifter or pushrod. Anyone else have this problem?

Did you use AIR restrictors? If not it could be your AIR check valves.

Have you checked for an exhaust leak?

Re: Horrible Tick

Yea i have taken the headers off and put them back on...after reading the other posts on the board I think its just a bad case of piston slap as well.Its the same noise that J Norris put on the board in that sound clip
