just change that and you be all set...
In allseriousness, check the bolts/flanges on the header/exhaust conection. They might have been left loose during the instalation of the new headers. Also, check the shifter linkage.

no, i did the install myself (and ive never owned a Honda :D ) I listened to it this afternoon and it is just a bracket that was knocking against the exhaust
well you beat me to it but yeah usually when metal clangs come from that area its your heatsheild or the brackets lol I had that noise one to many times (as I am on my 3rd honda).

The answer for me was two. Had a accord then a Prelude when I was 16. Then I got a WS6 T/A when I was 17.
