evil8 Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 Thats been sitting around for a while, or improper lubrication. And, if that was an LSx motor it would still make more power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Main3s Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 (edited) Damn! I've seen where the rocker came loose and the pushrod went through the valve cover, I've even seen rockers that were damn near cracked in half, but nothing like that.

FourString Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 That is a strange failure. Never seen one quite like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug1647545489 Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 I see that all the time.... on prostock cars with shitty Jesel rockers that push the adjusters out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
