[QUOTE="Jefe, post: 8232109, member: 41358"] Well the EGR tube is still in tact and exhaust seems to be snug to the manifolds. Checked the drivers side plugs this morning after reading a few guys here heard ticking and then a plug shot out of their heads so I thought it might be that. 4 plugs on the drivers side were snug and looked to be in good shape. So I took it to a shop and got in the pit with a stethoscope and listened to both exhaust pipes, the trans in multiple spots, the oil pan, parts of the block and couldn't hear the ticking or anything but air or moving parts in those. Went on top and couldn't hear the ticking over the injectors but I listened to the supercharger and both heads and nothing from those either. Went back down under the car and just listened where it was the loudest and it seems to be the back portion of the block. I put the stethoscope on the passenger side manifold that comes down to the X pipe and there's a lot of noise coming from it. Didn't seem to be in sync with the ticking but just sounded too loud considering the X piping is fairly quiet and the manifold is that loud when they are connected to each other. Couldnt get to the drivers side manifold because of the heat and my skin wanting to stay on my arm. So Im back to square 1 thinking its a blown manifold gasket or something with the manifolds. Still dont see any driveability changes. Im not getting into boost until I get the tune but you know you can tell when you give it some gas... Still going to check the pass side plugs tonight. Anyone think it might have to do with the 10w/30 royal purple Im running instead of 5/30? This seemed to start right before the 2nd royal purple oil change. And yes Im running a motorcraft filter.
