Ok so I installed some pypes shorty headers on my 4.6L 2010 mustang and now it sounds like there’s a leak and there’s a tick/ weird cup sound like if you were making cups with your hand and clapping. It might have been just a simple install error with the leak and I’m a take it out and do it again but the tick/ cup sound is my main concern if anyone knows what I can do pls let me know, thank you

Hello, when I installed my bbk shorty headers I had the same problem, my fix was to replace the bbk header gasket with Felpro and I purchased locking header bolts from Summit. Fixed my issue, good luck!
