Clicking or tapping engine noise

Earlier this week my factory fuel pump went out. As I drove it to the shop I noticed a clicking noise. Once the new pump (raptor system) was installed I drove it home and continued to hear this noise. It only does it when driving down the road and does not do it when i just rev it up. Any ideas as to what this could be?

Check the blue clips on your fuel rail. Most of the time the number 4 isnt tightened all the way down and causes a slight ticking noise.

Everyone needs to do that the fuel line will eventually vibrate causing the line to bust making a huge mess under the hood
