What PSI are you running normally, and what did it spike to? what kit is that?

^ I think it's just a mark so if there is any damage/scratches over the mark, it would be an easier diagnostic.

Looks like a turbonetics, since the WG is Turbonetics.

This is exactly why I won't run without gauges that have an audible warning system.

in my previous experiance with the nissan ka24de they would have a yellow band on the intake cam and a red band for the exhoust. it just denotes what cam is what. may not be the same for toyota though.

After watching the vid I am leaning towards a broken valve stem. I am not sure how the head is assembled on our motors though.
