My check engine light came on and the engine began to run very rough. I had it towed and the code the engine threw was a valve error.

Long story short, I now have a built engine after a long wait and Many dollars invested I hadn't planned on.

What can I say?
You play with fire, you can get burnt!
I'm really sorry to hear this. I hope that you can get your car back on the road again soon. Did anyone figure out what caused the valve error and the subsequent engine failure?

Also, wasn't your car the test vehicle for the 16G MHI Kit (in the link below)?
