Silly Question about Shock Insert Replacement

Did a quick replacement of Bilstein inserts on the front of my 1980 SC a week or so ago, and then went out of town away from the car. I did something that's been gnawing at me since I've been away...

Low drumming sound

Hm, so this is definitely my fault. My 3.0 911 SC is making a low thrumming sort of noise, immediately on start, and it stays with it. It rides along fine, perhaps a little less powerful than before...
