My cam was shot on the mating lobe.

oh yeah, cam will be shot too. and you have all that missing metal in the oil, too. unless the filter got it all. riiiiiight! at the very least change out the cam and lifters, drop the pan and clean it out, cheap oil and filter for a few hundred miles and change it again.

Be sure to carve the necessary longer pushrod from either hickory or oak. Don't want it breaking on you. :eek:

This is ash country.....or are you forgetting the Louisville Slugger??? I personally prefer persimmon for my pushrods.

Nope...haven't forgotten the Louisville Slugger. I hear it makes a REAL POOR weapon. :D

Well....I hadn't exactly meant it as a weapon....but i guess it can't be as poor as some of this AMC stuff ;)

The slugger might be good for destroying Nokia cell phones. I'd like to be there to see the action. :D :rolleyes:
