well, i was on my way home tonight and i just got off the freeway.
approaching the stop light @ the end of the freeway, i let my foot off the gas.
- to the punch : it sounds like someone is throwing marbles in engine(sort of). only happens when at 2k RPM or higher.

the 1/4 doesnt have patience for a ST.... so we make them ST-T's so atleast we'll sound good going slow.

we just took the valve cover off, checked the timing and valves. the engine is very well lubricated. didnt notice any utterly destroyed pistons. im contimplating draining the oil and check for chunks or bits or something.
