Great idea!
Closed until tomorrow so Ill make the call at 8 or 830 tomorrow and find out if they will replace this or not.
51 hrs, this is crap!!!!
Jegs catalog says they are 900 bones for these shaft mounted rocker arms. Thats INSANE! LOL Guess thats why engines like this are 30 grand a pop right?

Don't forget, there may be another reason why these failed.
You must look for the root cause.

Do we know what type of cams are in these engines ? If solid rollers, I'd find out everything about them. They may or may not be 'valve train' eaters.

Get the whole 'low down' before just thinking it a freak part failure and bolting on replacements and going.

I agree. It may be a simple bolt failure, but it may be more in depth and subtle to find. You have to check everything closely. BTW, do you have a bore scope? That will let you see under the intake and give you a good look at the cam lobes.

Dont have a scope although that would be a friggin AWESOME tool to have in my present situation.
Unfortunately wrenches and sockets are all I have so the blower is going to come off this week and Ill tear into it.
Ike, thanks for the helpful advice.
Now I know what path to follow! Oh Holy One to the rescue again!
