Make sure everthing is tight and check to see if you need new hangers and rubber for the exhaust.

Re: exhaust rattling after engine swap

is it rattleling near the engine? if your useing the stock exhaust or headers that use the stock heat riser piece, i had a rattle once and it turned out to be the linkage on the heat riser. removed the linkage, problem was solved.
just a thought.
