Btr red hot

Not tuned yet, I know about the infamous sewing machine noises for upgraded valvetrains..(Dual springs, trunnion, hardened pushrods). Kooks LT straight piped, E85 sensor. Any body care to listen and if you hear something god awful let me know? Speaker quality is actually pretty good for how loud it is. First time messing with an LS, came over from a Hellcat. Turned the wrenches myself..

Sounds more like a exhaust leak at the header flange (between header and the head).

I used a pushrod length checker from Summit and surprisingly, 7.400 was what i got, checked 100 times before tighten it down. Ive pulled them out to check and i dont have any bent rods and springs/retainers still look good.
