Well I really think I screwed the motor up tonight. For those who don't know I got my motor running last week, had it dynoed and took it to the track. It ran the strongest it ever has. Well leaving work today I hear this grind and then chattering like a roller rocker came loose. So I coasted down the hill at idle and pulled into a parking lot. I had it towed home and then started tearing it apart. Well I took the intake off and pulled the valve cover off, I noticed that my jimmy rigged oil breather had fallen down into the valvetrain. Basically, the breather wouldn't fit in the filler neck because it hit the air intake track. So I used this industrial tape that we have at work and taped a deep socket that fit the grommet perfect, to the breather. It fit perfect, the deep socket slid into the breather and the socket fit snug in the grommet. Well after even dynos and track time, it had to be when I'm putting around that i guess the tape wore off and the socket slid through and fell onto the roller rockers. It idled for maybe a minute like that. But now I pulled the cover off, checked everything out. No damage done to the roller rocker or anything. But now it runs like complete crap. It just bounces around from like 500rpms to 2krpms. And it chokes which is why I think its a bent valve.
What does everyone think. Is there any hope for me.
