truck is fixed
just installed the pushrods back in that i had checked today, adjusted the valves, tightened the set screw on the rocker arm nuts, VERY tight, and started it up. took a second to start, but then it did
 went for a drive and its running great, actually, its running better than it did before it broke at the track

I think I need to check my rockers, I think the nuts are losing their ability to lock and might be backing out, my motor has gotten noisier lately and I noticed some felt a little to easy to turn.
