Well HOPEFULLY I will have it back by then. If so there is a chance that I may be able to bring it up for some tuning. That's probably a big "if" as it is hard to tell exactly how bad the damage is. With the amount of shavings I saw, the damage could be from moderate to severe, wont really know until next weekend when I run it back down to the builder. Hopefully the cam isn't damaged, lifters, cyl. walls, etc;. At the very least I will have new bearings installed and everything cleaned up.

As far as what might have happened. My guess is that either the oil restricters are plugged (unlikely since there are 2) or else the oiling set-up was improperly assembled. This thing isn't oiling at all on any of the rockers.

Argh, I hate thinking about it. I will keep everyone posted.
