CAMARO6 - View Single Post - Ticking noise after header install

As a 6gen owner with an exhaust leak, its a leak. Just find the source and get the bolts tight. Don't go too crazy and snap one... You'll want to considering a cam job if you snap one of those bolts lol. That motor will have to come out depending on which bolt and what position its in -_-. I've seen a few mcguivers get some bolts out using magic and a kit, but it'll make an annoying situation into a shitty one very fast. Older header torque spec was 18ftlbs. Sounds awfully low but hopefully someone here who actually used a torque wrench to end their LT install can chime in.
