Finally got around to looking at the car from MaTS….. found the culprit of the mysterious noise as #7 intake adjuster broke. Everything was in place and absolutely no glitter in the oil up in the head. Not sure “why” this occurred, but I have a few sets of rockers to steal parts from so it’s back together for now. All the valve springs checked out so we’re just waiting for some new valve cover gaskets to arrive. The old MP gaskets were starting to weep some even with the vac pump. Not sure when we’re getting out again…. off-roading season has really overshadowed any racing we do anymore.
