Broken Valve rod |
By Joe - 11/09/2005 4:37:50 PM; IP 68.81.74.236 |
Went for a ride sunday and broke down I thought the engine was toast. The valve rod broke on the end. The last valve is on the outside of the rod support and my engine guy said it is commom for them to snap there and probably more so for me because I have edelbrock heads which use a heavier spring. Is this B.S? Has anyone else had this problem? It has less than 1K on rebuild. Does someone make a stronger rod? I don't want to get stranded if I take a long cruise. He said I could put roller rockers on that add an extra support on the ends$$ Thanks, Joe |
