Thoughts on squeak
Ok guys got a weird problem, my 2022 camaro SS1LE has 9500 miles on it. I did the btr cam and such by a garage they did a great job and was running good. Then got my heads back and put them on used all new gaskets changed nothing else. But when i started it has a weird squeaking sporatic noise. I mean it wasnt there before but goes away when it revs but is there at low speed, or when it shifts down, and idle. Oil pressure is great. Havent gotten under the car to tighten the exhaust connection pipes perfectly. So may be an exhaust leak, cant see it being rod bearings or lifters when it wasnt doing it literally 6 hours before the new heads and didnt change, remove, or mess with anything other than the heads. Runs amazing an no check engine lights. Any thoughts on what to look for just havent had time to get it on the lift to make the connection pipes properly on. Just people are saying lifters and connecting rod bearings and it wasnt there before. Idk just stressed. But noones saying it bout mine just saw a post bout a truck and it sounds similar and thats what their saying on his.

Use a 3' or 4' piece of vacuum hose, one end in your ear the other searching around the header flange for an exhaust leak. You will know when you find it. Could be a loose spark plug.

May have been before i got the heads i always start them by hand and slowly pull them in ... in sequence. But they just wouldnt tighten. Im goin to try a slightly longer bolt first if that dont wk then i think with all the hose out of the way i can do a helicoil without removing it.
