    Yeah, by the sounds of it that was my first guess too... a rocker/valve spring problem. Helicoil those bastards and be on your way!

      Only 1 rocker was off the spring. Deffinatley ****ed up though. The people that put it together were cobblers big time. They broke the connector off one of the coils and how do they fix it? Tape the connector to the coil with ELECTRICAL TAPE

                          I think he meant all they used was electrical tape instead of soldering it together the correct way.

                            No, instead of half assing it they should have bought him a complete new coil harness, because that's what it needs now

                              i was jokin, i was there when it came apart, let alone the othere crap that was done to it, i am shocked at the way some one would do this and blow you off after you call them back for help. thats not a way to keep buisness to me.

                                ouch for sure!
                                And Jeremy was upset with Bryan because he thought he sold the 69 Firebird with bent push rods.

                                LOL...know i hope Jeremy knows the push rods were not bent when he sold it.
                                Just a little over revving on the Dyno by Don and his crew.

                                I hope you get everything fixed Derek.
