Motorhead,

We saw your car coming out of the trailer - beautiful!

To add to your list of things to pay attention to I propose adding this phrase from your first post "Roller lifters."

If those are solid rollers, please check them while you are diagnosing. They aren't good for more than 3-5 thousand miles before needing replacement/rebuilding. If they're hydraulic, ignore the preceding caution.

Here's hoping you find the root cause and get it behind you expeditiously!

Tom
