***UPDATE****
#2 spark plug blew out of the head destroying the cop along with it. ****, mother****ing heads on these cars....
i decided to get new threads put in, had replacement cop put on and all new plugs.
just can't see dropping 2k on the new heads + the labor that goes along with putting them in
Anyway, a nice man in an 05-07 Vette decides to race me and I smoke him.... great short story right? My gas pedal somehow pops off in the process (awesome) no big deal, just pull over at a gast station and pop it back on.
I go to fire up the Cobra, and notice it sounds a little different, rev it a little bit, I hear some light clicking/clanging noises from the motor and it sounds like i have a header leak maybe?
The car does idle slightly harder now, giving it a little gas at low rpm you can feel the burble/rumble on the floorboard now. The revs don't seem to be falling off at all on idle, just a hardle idle, the car shakes a bit now.
Anyone just randomly have a header leak appear? It was a single roll race with the corvette, then I pull over, no other real hard driving other than that.
