Needle bearings from my rocker arm/s? I'm going tear into it tomorrow. I actually ran the car tonight at the track after I found this during my oil change(maybe not the best idea )
Ran consistent as usual 13.7's w/ 2.1 60 fts.
Any help is appreciated, thanks.

O.K. used search and already found my answer, rocker arm. Should I just replace all the rocker arms? Stock or aftermarket? Any opinions on the best aftermarket rocker arm set for the price, thanks again.

Yup, needle bearings. You can send your rockers to one of the sponsors, http://www.nastyperformance.com They can do something to make sure they don't throw the bearings anymore. That's what I'd do.

Yea those little silver mouse terdies are from your rockers. I had those when I screwed up my cam install. I just replaced all of my rockers, figured I busted seven of them real good might as well replace all of them.

I agree, they press Harland Sharp trunions and this time with c-clips so no more bearing spills.

what did your car sound like before you changed the oil?

It sounded normal. I didn't hear anything different than usual. Even after the oil change and making 3 runs at the track it sounds and runs fine. Its sitting in the garage now though and wont run again until its torn apart and has new rockers or whatever the culprit is if it isn't the rockers.
