Starting to sound like you have a problem with your shop thats doing the work .See if you can find a friend that can help you double ck behind the shop on what there doing or not doing.

Good Luck

Yes, he installed the rockers, I'm double checking them tonight before I take it for a ride. Nice that the valve covers come off without taking the headers off. I will never take it back to that Marina

Thats very simmilar performance to what I'm getting.I just had a friend who had a zz 502 die due to reversion.It droped a valve, but I should mention he wasn't using good manifolds and inconell valves.He also didn't have his cam modified in the maner mine was.I'm hoping mine stays together but you start to get paranoid.
