I'm still stoked to hear it run, but glad nothing got hurt in the process.

Keep at it man, it's going to be awesome.

BTW me and my friend who adjusted the valves with me have come to the conclusion that someone messed with my valves. I built this truck at the school and there are a lot of kids in and out of the shop so it is very possible. Also there is no way we could have been adjusting valves and turning the engine over by hand if one of the valves was so tight that it contacted the piston. I wouldnt have been able to turn over the motor.

Really makes me wonder about some people i go to school with but nothing really bad came of it so i cant be too mad.
