rocker arm problem UPDATED!!!
ok, it is a shaved cam lobe. i just don't know how it happened in less than 300 miles. i believe i adjusted the rocker arms down appropriately prior to starting the motor. the lifter was cupped on the under side and i was able to pull it out of the hole.
anyways, what's the best way to get the shaved metal dust out of the oil galley? should i use the distributor primer i made and get all the oil circulating to try to get rid of the oil before more problems arise. so other than the metal dust and replacing the cam, lifters, what else should i check for? when it stops raining over here in southeast texas, i'll get to work. (maybe, sincei i have all 4 kids here, they can help me push it in the garage!!!!) :O) laters, joey
