so i had a head job about two weeks ago. Talked with tommy about snapping pushrods when torquing the rocker arms down. he told me about it and i was like what? how do you do that? So i finish my job... have another one this week.
Had all pushrods lined up , set the rocker arms down and slowly tightened the bolts. Well i didn't see that one was slightly out of line - i looked 3 times too... not much and snap, popped the tip of it off.
First words out of my mouth were... "F'in Tommy !" HA HA HA
there is only one in alaska and they are otherwise on backorder... called johnny then ppe then clyde at redline diesel. Clyde is hooking me up tomorrow morning !!! Never had any dealings with clyde and he was more then happy to help me out !!!
THANKS CLYDE !!!!
moral of the story... when setting and torquing the rocker arm shaft down. pay close attention to every pushrod !
