Mine did the same thing, so I got a rebuild kit from CMI for them. Not very expensive.

How old are your headers? Could be tome to pull them and get them pressure tested.

Preassure check is a WHOLE lot cheaper than the alternative if you let them go.

Shoot me a pic if you can. It might just be a leaking bushing seal. Jan (Lightning) is only an hour and a half from us and will presure check older headers (or new). If they're not stainless headers it could be the first sign that they're letting go. Better to check than to loose a mill!
