I am having a bit of a problem with my latest 2 liter build. Basically, valves are colliding with pistons after warm up during break in. A valve got stuck and the pushrod actually fell off the rocker.

The heads were redon by RIMCO. After the problem happened, I pulled the heads, and there was clear indication of valve collision, and I had a valve stuck open. The head with a problem was sent back to RIMCO.

Reinstalled. What happened this time is the engine start up from cold, runs fine. But then I can hear the taping of collision again. The taping is accompanied by a chirping sound that sounds like something is dragging. I think it must be the valves dragging and closing too slow.

I have a deck height of .065.

This is essentially a stock build, stock camshaft, etc.


Any ideas? Is this perhaps a valve stem lubrication issue?
