VERY short recap -
Engineer told him that he has the valves shimmed to tight, and that these engines like to be adjusted to the middle of the allowed range rather than to the tightest tolerance.
He reshimmed the valves for the fourth time, taking this advice into account, and the car runs awesome.
That's the tale.

Well, no shit, did that tech miss the point that most mechanics have known for years - 
Glad your car survived!
