engine repair help.

Does anyone know how to repair a damaged lift valve. One of My rocker arms are real loose and I never got this deep into my engine and dont want to mess something up. If anyone has time in san diego to help me fix this I will be greatly appreciated and ill pay you something when we get everything working. I dont have much money so I cant pay 3k for a shop to do this job.I have a 2011 Camaro SS with an LS3 engine. I have a couple of mods with the car so if anyone has worked with this kind of problem before please send me a message or text me @ 832-262-6229.

What mods? Are you over your power train warranty? If not take it to a dealership. Courtesy chevrolet is willing to work with you if you have minor mods.

Sorry to say but a loose lifter on a non-adjustable valve train is a sign of a bad cam lobe.
seen it way to many times.

Jess, the best thing that could come from this is to port your heads and buy all new rocker arms as well.
