I finally made it to the track yesterday
Car did well for what it has and went 11.50 @ 115.65 on its best pass. Cant say I was not a tad disapointed but I was hopping for better lol.
Anyway on my 6th Pass I decided to leave the car in Drive since eveyone says that is the best way to run our cars.
Well I got just past the 1/8th and the car stumbled and then clank clank and I let off.
When I got the car home there is a lot of gas in the oil (Probly becuase the Valves were not moving lol) and the rocker shaft was broken off on the end all 3 bolts that hold the shaft to the Head are bent and one push rod is bent real bad (Agian see the photos below)
Anyone know what could have caused this to Happen??
Oil is clean but has gas in it. Should I yank the eng. and rebuild it or just put the new push rods in with a better rocker arm shaft???
Thanks for your help in advance also
