I was just driving my car a minute ago and something very bad just happened. I had a concern about my revs earlier and how it wouldn't let me go over 4000 rpm. Well, I just replaced the coil and was trying it out to see if it helped my revs go past 4000. When I took it up there, something happened and a very loud knocking noise started happening. Another person on this thread had a post about a loud knocking noise that he heard when he started his car. Mine seems to be making the same kind of noise. I need help immediately! Any help as soon as possible would be helpful, please. Thank you very much.

My dad guessed one of my valves made contact with the top of one of my pistons and caused it to sheer off and send it's pieces out my exhaust. I pulled off the passenger side's valve cover and everything looked ok. But I'm going to go see if everything is nice and tight. When I replaced my plugs about 2 weeks ago, one plug was wet on the passenger side . . . have to check which cylinder. I'm hoping these pieces are just a broken valve and only that. I'm going to have to spend a lot of time taking apart the motor now to get down to the heads. I have to pull my carb off, intake, take apart the linkage, then pull the tin off the top of that side. So wish me luck! I'll get back on how everything feels as far as the rocker arms. Thanks
