Jake, thank you so much for your input. I did take a close look at the top of the piston and did not see any marks from the valve.
Is this a project I am foolish to try and tackle while the motor is in the car? The 101Projects says you can (not pretty) change the cams while in the car. Assuming I don't have to replace the valve/head? Is it realistic to think that I can just pull the camshaft cover, camshafts, cam follower housing and have access to the valve hardware? Replace a valve spring or lifter and put it back together?
