390 intake pushrods pretzeled
By Glenucci - 11/10/2003 11:34:05 PM; IP 67.73.4.28
My formerly well running 390 began to run poorer and poorer. Seven out of eight intake pushrods are severly bent. Suspect the cam timing has gone south; if so, can I replace all the pushrods and timing set and hope for the best, or must I pull the heads? What is the torque for the rocker shaft bolts? Is there any other explanation for the bent pushrods? Thanks.
This thread, so far...
