Sorry headers means exhaust manifold, it sounds like its blowing where it meets the cylinder head, also check your spark plugs are tight.. if you have swapped plugs recently one may not be tightened up enough. First test jack the car up, put it on stands, handbrake on out of gear and start it up, have a look and hear by the manifold, if it is not there try the plugs. Your to far away for me to pop up and check for you

orange skum in header tank
Sounds like a lack of coolant change, more than likely rust and deposits gathering, people before could just use tap water as coolant, best bet is dont use engine flushes as they take out weak gaskets, but empty system, fill it with water and run for 10 mins, cool it down, drain it and fill with proper coolant, give it a few hundred miles then drain and swap, hopefully this will have cleared any coolant abuse

What about "Federal 595 RS-R" they look good and are a reasonable price from most places like Camskill. Thinking of getting a set for myself
