    Once I started looking into it from the cam possibly being the issue I found several videos on youtube of similar problems. The majority of them seem to be chewed up cam journals and lifter rollers at the back half of the motor. So I guess I'm going to pull it back out and see what happened.

    You've got me pretty nervous about the 5.3 I have in mine. What year is your motor?I've heard the ones that shut off cylinders down the road gave problems.
