Just Dam. Don't know what came first the loose rocker or the valve keepers coming loose. Part of the blame is the guy who put the heads together put "1" 10 degree valve spring keeper on my heads. I'm sure the 7 degree keepers did not like this. To the point a rocker loosened and a roller lifter got broken. It broke the roller off the end and scared the cam. So motor has to come out. My concern is the block. Lifter bore damage, etc. Really I could put a new cam, set of lifters and run it agian. I like the power from the blower. But I feel like completley throwing in the towel and buying some 290hp engine putting rams horns on and driving it.

Sorry just complaing.
