Jay-If I am to understand thisyou had 2 rocker arms break off at the mounting allowing the lifters to find their way into the valley. I would be suspect of all the rockers and would have them all serviced with new rocker mountings pressed into the heads. The supercharged engines produce higher cylinder pressures and put stress on the rockers and their mountings.
