ProComp/Speedmaster aluminum heads

Okay what Fiasco do I start with first?...
Okay after work today I pushed it out into the driveway and filled it full of water with a bottle of water wetter. Fired it up and it fired up pretty quickly. After it started to warm up I was getting a pretty heavy clatter on the driver side. And after it started warming up good it was a heavy clatter that I wasn't willing to listen to anymore and shut it down. I went through the entire valve lash again and everything did grow substantially but nothing out of tolerance.so I started again and run it up to good temperature and this time figuring I'll just go til it's nice and hot. It's clattering pretty regular on the driver side and I'm not liking it. Oh yeah other Fiasco I forgot to mention four streams of oil coming out of the bottom of the valve cover right over the number 5 number 7.had to switch to one of the valve covers I wanted to send back because that one was warped, but I'll get back to that Fiasco...
So this time I go through all the valve flash just on the driver side find nothing. Then I started spinning some of the loose push rods just to make sure nothing was bent. then I'm playing with the number five exhaust push rod and click clunk! The dang pushrod was not down in the lifter properly and the rocker came up about a half inch! So the problem became obvious....
Then I took it for its first drive. I can tell right away when I got on the gas the front seemed to lift a lot faster and higher..
I took it for a short drive and got on it a little bit once and it seemed to you go good. I brought it back home check the few things out and took it for another drive just a little bit longer and this time I got on it real good and definitely seat of the pants I was feeling some extra ponies...:thumbsup:
Still a little bit noisier in the valve train then I would like so next week I did go ahead I'm taking it off work. I'll get it warmed up to temperature real good and then adjust the valves one more time. And give it an oil change..
I did call Summit and tell them that one leaked and had to grab one out of the second batch that I was sending back and was not happy about that that now I have even a worse looking valve cover but it doesn't leak. I made them send me a third-set...:elmer:
