    Hey dont forget to inspect your rocker arm assembly. I have seen this same sort of thing when a stud was pulling from the head, and when a rocker arm has stress cracks around allowing it to flex. Just throwing out ideas.

    sounds like time for some head work. would also check the compression before you remove the heads.

    If you want to swap then go for it, but diagnosing this motor before pulling it could be beneficial $$$$. not having to replace alot of otherwise good parts. Could be as simple as a collapsed lifter, or a rocker arm that failed.
