Hopefully you didn't ruin the engine. It could be the valves or a rod ;o When it comes to ticking and engines dying, I wouldn't recommend driving it anymore until you can take it to a shop. You might have something scraping the head which can do alot of damage.

It's raining for me today and I have to delivery drive for Pizza Inn... I'm skeered... It hasn't rained once since I put my CAI on a few months ago... I've been through one motor already
