When you say rocks in a can... do you mean it sounds like pinging or rod-knock.

Has he redlined the engine at all? (leads to spun bearing)
Did you drain the engine oil to see if it is milky? (blown head gasket)
I had this happen on a chevy engine when I spun bearing.
I over-revved the engine 3 times before this happened.

Hope this helps. - Better yet, I hope I am dead wrong.
