Rough Idle & Engine Clicking

I'm getting a really rough idle all of a sudden, with no CEL. Ran injector cleaner and put in new spark plugs and it didn't help. There's also a clicking noise from the engine that it's made since I got the car, it has 31k miles on it now. Can't decide if its and injector starting to fail, coil packs going bad, or something else. Thoughts?

Video of the engine noise:

Are you tuned? I see you have some longtube headers.

And mine since day one and now 27K miles later with sometimes a rough idle and sometimes not. I just drive it - runs great everytime I stick my foot in it.

Yep it's tuned for the headers. Been running them for a year now and the rough idle just started this last weekend. Runs great when I'm giving it throttle.

Yea it's really throwing me off. The rough idle just started last week and I really thought the new spark plugs would fix it. That clicking from the injectors is way louder since the headers were put on.
