RE: Shoe is probably right, but....

Thanks for the response. The oil pressure was good...50 to 30 overall and it has been that way since we installed it. So no change there. Crank was changed but I did not check the diameter of seal area. No rust was present and seal was changed with engine out of car. I installed seal according to directions with same results. Was I suppossed to use silicon to to help seal the mechanical seal? Seal area was clean.

Push rod....the car ran fine as far as pushrods are concerned......was it bent a little on assembly and then finally went bad? I don't know, but it is bent a lot now....should I change lifter and put a new rod in and see what happens?

Any help would be appreciated.
This thread, so far...
