The reason I asked if there is black smoke is because the brittle little tube from the inside of the throttle body back, then up to the MAP sensor on the firewall needs to be flawless. Cracked, off, or plugged up and it will run rich, which may make black smoke.
It could be not answering questions like that is partly why you are getting bad responses. I DID take the time to read your deal and ask the question....

well the crooked rocker arm defnitly has something to do with it got pictures???. you need to do a compression check. possible that the rings did not get put on correctly. the gaps should be staggered on the rings. also possible that the head gasket is torn from improper installation.......
