Sounds like bent push rods, so if that's all it is consider yourself lucky. Check it out immediately.

if push rods bent you better do a cyl leak down test. more than likely valves will be bent too

when the car is running it barly idles and there is a fast ticking noise. I just hope it is nothing more than pushrods and valves. the fu#*&# up thing is i have to drive it to a friends house to have him look at it. how expensive will it be for parts pushrods and valves ect. thanks mario
