So I have noticed a tick every since I got the exhaust leak fixed. I originally though it was a lifter, but it does not get faster with rpms. I have sea foamed the engine, changed the oil to Mobil 1 high mileage 5/30, and am currently running with about a half quart of MMO. The tick seams to quiet down after 5 - 10 miles but it doesn't go away. It only ticks while accelerating. Any body got any suggestions or advice? |

Sounds like the leak didn't get completely fixed. How did you have it fixed? What was used? |

So I'm a rookie, and don't know what I'm looking at. I realize it is the fly wheel but don't know what is wrong with it |

the little round part with the 6 holes is supposed to be in the middle of the larger part, (just 1 part) not two. |

Oh, wow! Well I'm really starting to believe it is an exhaust leak but I just have no clue where it is. I would really like to get a good header for it |
