I was just driving my car a minute ago and something very bad just happened. I had a concern about my revs earlier and how it wouldn't let me go over 4000 rpm. Well, I just replaced the coil and was trying it out to see if it helped my revs go past 4000. When I took it up there, something happened and a very loud knocking noise started happening. Another person on this thread had a post about a loud knocking noise that he heard when he started his car. Mine seems to be making the same kind of noise. I need help immediately! Any help as soon as possible would be helpful, please. Thank you very much.

Well we got the head partially off today. Need to drop the motor to get it completely off. But it looks as though one of my valve stems broke and the valve got pushed sideways back into the valve seat. It seems those little chunks of metal that came out of the exhaust were from the valve stem or the valve itself because it was really chewed up. Hopefully we can get the head off tomorrow and I can show everyone how bad it looks. Thanks
