intake valve gap? i was wondering if the intake valve opened up enough for about a 10mm socket or so to slip inside of it?? when i put my intake back on, i heard a clanking sound and shut it off right away... i got to codes though one of them is 122 and the other one was about a air flow circuit i forgot the number... could that code 122 make it cling like that or could i have left something un-pluged for it too??? thanks for the help...
i just want to check everything before i take my heads back off!!
i took the intake off again to make sure there wasnt anything in there and there wasnt.. i looked and there wasnt any damage to the valve or to the intake ports.. thanks for any help!!

It is highly unlikely. The valve is only open < .600". Getting a 10mm socket through that with the valve stem and the back of the valve in the way at several hundred rpm is basically impossible.
