Replaced intake gaskets now ticking/knocking?? Help

Hello

I've been trying to locate the source of a ticking or knocking (not sure which). The truck was running pretty good before this, but had a slight intake leak. So I thought I'd change them out. Used felpro 1205 gaskets and rtv black for china walls. After I got it back together the noise appeared. I looked for another leak haven't found one. Using a stethoscope the noise seems to be everywhere. But for some reason I think it's cam related? Tried to adjust valves but didn't help. Pulling each spark plug wire one at a time doesn't change the noise. It increases with rpm's.

Stock 87 350 originally tbi converted to q-jet.

Uploading a video to youtube right now. Once it's done I'll post it.
