Default Back to Square One Again

3 weeks ago, clean bill of health and 196 Bhp at 19psi, which I thought a bit optimistic.
Dubious but told give it a Good run. Going really nice at low boost without going Mental,
press the Green button for full boost, Lunatic for 10 seconds then Bang!
Barely got it home. One rocker arm rattling about, nut backed off? All done to same torque
and all the others fine,
Bit suspect about the follower and given the last Piper cam kit was a Bag o sh-t,
is it worth me trying a new follower before tearing the head off to see what else might be
knackered? Lobe on cam looks OK but follower struggles to compress in a Vice.
Have a newly rebuilt engine, have to resort to installing this, will be very Glad to see the back of this pile of crap.
As an aside, Gaz Gold dampers, just weld in metal bars, same effect, no feckin suspension!
