    i do drive the car quite hard.. redlined several times a day. the other weekend the car bounced off the rev limiter for seconds at a time at the autox. maybe this was the straw that broke the camels back. well see, hopefully ill be able to take off the valve cover tommorow

        not a broken rocker arm..... valvetrain looked fine

        the car drives normally, its just down on power... it could be a coincidence that this happened a few days after a slight overrev. any other ideas what it could be? c

          do you know if the car is running rich or lean?

            possibly, has had a CEL forever(lambda code) but ran great, so i assumed it was a bad sensor and left it alone.
