i don't know what your problem is?i didn't ask for smart remarks.and to recall[no offence to bjuice] every mechanic here has looked at my car. and i found it was a wiring problem,dist. and a bad cam.thanks every one

you know i don't think anybody on here has given you smart remarks . and i don't think any mechanic on here has looked at your car. everybody has tried to give you advice based on your discription of the problem. brian gave you a logical suggestion to your unique problem without trying to be rude.your reply was a little defencive "not to sound like an a--hole i run a garage and build race cars". relax big guy . it's hard to diagnois a problem like this with out being there with hands on. you should know how it is running a garage and building race care in all. i can't figure out how a wireing problem, a bad distributor, and a bad ground cam could seize up 9 + lifters twice? who's cam and lifters are they? there tech dept. should probably know about your problem with there product. no offence towards you.

bad cam
 
The block doesn*t have oil restrictors in it does it? Do they even use them in big blocks? somebody straighten me out!

bbc28racing 03-08-2008 10:42 PM

no oil restictors,atleast not in my motor.i think maybe just got a bad set of lifters.these are doing good so far but i haven't raced with them yet.

It's funny, nobody seemed to catch the one about pushrod bearings! When's the last time anyone changed a set of those? :lol:

I think we need to lighten up a little, don't you? If you can't have some fun on here then what's the point? Especially when the symptoms and problem descriptions don't go hand in hand.
