Bent Pushrods
By Tim P. - 02/06/2004 8:40:11 AM; IP 152.163.252.35
IN The Process Of The Blown Head Gaskets On My 390 I've Also Have Most Of The Pushrods are bent can this happen as a result of the head gasket blown I've never come across this issue before i was having some lifter noise before the machine shop ststed that some was normal and that 0 lash makes hp that not to worry about the noise so now i wonder if the pushrods he used were too long and also might be the cause of blowen gasket are they connected to each other issue? Any input to help answer why so when I approach the machinist about this, He does'nt try to snowball me, cause there is a warrenty on this work he performed I dont fell that this should cost me any more money to correct this problem or the guy trying to blame me for the engine failer Thanks Tim P.
