Mike hang in there bud. Remember when I thought my motor was junk and I tore it down. Who knows how long it would of sat around until I put a motor in it. I was sick to my stomach. Yes I didnt need 2 grand to fix it, but you have way to much time and money in that thing to let it go for nothing. Hang in there buddy.

OMG! Just do it already. Like a suicide jumper, JUMP! Or grab your vajayjay, tuck in your meat curtains, cinch up your panties, and fix the damn thing already. What kind of rockers were they? were they no names or pro comps? It has happened to most of us. Have a supposed ok eng. and have it take a puke on ya.

They were 06 scorpion self guided rockers. The lifters are what failed then took out the rockers from what I gather. Ahh well its all in "racing" I guess!

the excessive lash due to the rhoads lifters side loaded the rockers causing the bushings to get taken out then every thing else went to hell in a hand basket
