Problem With IROC

Well, Found out what that clacking sound was. It's the Valve Lifter Retainer. A little thing that bolts to the center of the engine under the intake manifold and pushes down on the actual lifter retainers. On #6 Cylinder it's busted off so it doesn't hold that retainer down. I'll try and take pics later.

Alright, least ya got the problem figured out man! Oh, and a suggestion on the sig !MAF! would lead people to believe that you removed your MAF totally, which, would kinda make the engine unhappy. Put something like, Gutted MAF, or, removed MAF screens.
