Don’t even think that noise is related to belt, not sure what that is yet

shouldn't really be hearing any new sounds, the thicker factory cast manifolds do a better job of silencing the engine, with the thinner longtubes the noise from the valvetrain is louder, thats about it
That chirping sound drives me nuts, not sure what that is, any ideas?

Who did your trunion upgrade install? Were the rockers soaked in oil and smooth as opposed to gritty feeling after install? I had a few rockers that weren't as smooth as others and I soaked them in oil overnight and they were much better... I don't think the noise you are hearing is anything to be concerned about. Just normal valve train noise you get with a CAM, mine has a pretty similar sound.
Had the machine shop do the trunion upgrade. I believe they soaked them up, as they were moving very smoothly before we installed them. That noise drives me nuts because sounds bit like a belt.

Did it help..I can hear the entire inside of my engine running lol..dual valve springs add to the noise. I thought about replacing the headers..I had my headers coated like yours and had it stripped for a different coating. It looked like chrome and dulled slightly, but look new..just a lot of noise for no good reason..

Well I highly doubt it will help for valve train noise, I was targeting heat around transmission, but I hear you on engine sounds, I guess is something to get used to now. On the side note the metal zip ties are shit! waste of time and money.

The plastic zip ties work good

It is catted, but I just thought about that I may have issue at the inspection station since they can't see them, need to look for some one that I can pay and be over with, @Tonyrodz do you know any places to do private inspection is it even still possible to do so?

I know there's still some guys that do it, but I don't know anyone off hand. I used to have my inspector's license--worked at Eatontown, but I let it go cuz I didn't know I could've renewed it. Anyway, your Hoe is legit. I bet as long as you explain to them it's wrapped because of the heat--unless it's a ********--you should pass. No codes right?

The only thing that wrap will probably do is cause that pipe it's wrapped around to rust out quicker

By the time this Y pipe will rust it will be replaced twice already,
