I heard an intense ticking coming from my engine and I assumed that the valvetrain was on it's way out. One day, while spelunking in the enginebay, I decided just for laughs to tighten the header bolts. VIOLA! No more ticking. Miniscule exhaust leaks in the header area sound like ticking. Give it a shot, cant hurt
