I do believe I got bit by my purchase...

Now I'm getting somewhere...This morning I took the port side valve cover off first...easiest to remove...here is what I found:
Heads are casting # 12562934 which is a 2000+ rectangle port, open chamber, Gen. VI 502 Marine head...
FIrst visual shows 2 Comp Cams 1.72 roller rockers arms off of their pushrods (#5 Intake & exhaust), No broken springs, 1 severely bent pushrod (#5 Intake), & some cast chunkage in the mix. I won't even look at the starboard side.

I'm assuming this calls for an autopsy & rebuild...

Man what a beat down . Ive seen a few guys fumble the 305 to 350 vortec crankshaft flip flop , but i dont think i have ever seen or even heard of anybody having the balls to just grab a crank out of the pile and just slapping it in a 502 . Kick that edelbrock carb to the curb and get a holley 800 or 850 double pumper.
Once the rest is uncobbled even kia driving drunk young women will be able to identify the difference in midrange punch between the holley and that edelbrock .
Cant go back and look now but make sure cooler lines arent reversed and what distributor ya got on there?

Yes, do not buy any of those same type rockers when you rebuild. Those rocker arms are known to do that. Oiling / wear / overheating problems between ball and rocker arm.
