Listen to the noise in the video. My engine has had a tick ever since I put the new HGs on, and I've been sanding the car and doing body work ever since. So since I haven't been driving it I haven't been too concerned.
But recently it's been getting a lot louder. It's so loud now that I'm afraid to drive the car. I can't find any evidence of exhaust leaks, I bought an automotive stethoscope, can't find anything with it... it's really frustrating. Could this be a bad or a stuck or a loose lifter? The lifters are the comp cams retro roller lifters with the link bars FYI.
I've heard some bad exhaust leaks on this car before. And this is just too loud to be another exhuast leak IMO.
