Got everything together, but there's a random popping/ticking on the driver's side, and the engine runs like crap. It shudders at low RPMs and shakes the whole truck a lot when idling. I don't think it's an exhaust leak because it's so quiet and random, and I wouldn't think a leak would cause a shuddering feeling. Sounds kind of like a misfire but I'm not sure. I double checked the spark plug wires and they're all hooked up correctly. None of the wires are touching each other and none are touching the headers. I took a little video for reference, but you can't really hear it until the last few seconds.
