If the hangers are just a little bit too loose on the tailpipes they tend to rattle pretty bad it seems. Just make sure every single bolt is tight on the system.

good point I had a bad rattle that I thought was actually coming from the back but it was actually the cat shield...the welds broke.

You guys act like people arent that stupid, my best friends ex bought a 71 Nova and came over to show me, I was asking about mods and he's like well it has headers. I shit you not, he bends over and looks at the mufflers and says "but I can't find them"
