    there's 3 more that match that one, still not sure what happened, valve springs maybe, haven't decided if i even want to tear into it before bonneville. it'd be nice to know what the fuck happened for sure but i've been on the car 12-14 hours a day for the last week and a break would be nice.

    pissed me off that it did it last minute too, i just fired it to make sure the new tach was working, no strange noises only about 1200rpm standing next to the exhaust noticed nothing was hitting me in the leg off the front pipe, compression test... just about nothing, pulled the valve cover and let a few four letter words fly. it could be worse, i don't think it did any major damage just need to replace the bent stuff.
