Posted October 26, 200420 yr comment_99479 In the process of trying to find out what is broken in the engine we have discovered metal shavings & a couple of pieces in the bottom of the pan. Can anyone tell me what would cause this? Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/13779-more-power-for-75-280/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
October 28, 200420 yr comment_99866 How big are the pieces?Usually bits of metal are bearings. Could also hypothetically be pieces of valves. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/13779-more-power-for-75-280/#findComment-99866 Share on other sites More sharing options...
October 28, 200420 yr comment_99892 I'd lean toward bearings. If you had peices of valves make it to the oil pan, chances are you would be looking at replacing the block and head too.
