Diseazd Posted July 14, 2012 Share #14 Posted July 14, 2012 I would put all new rockers and have someone show you how to adjust valve lash. I would guess he didn't do it correctly......that's my best guess. Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvey19k Posted July 14, 2012 Author Share #15 Posted July 14, 2012 yea thats the best route Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zed Head Posted July 15, 2012 Share #16 Posted July 15, 2012 The gouge on your cam looks like it's on the base circle so it won't have any pressure on it, and most likely won't cause further damage.Although, in your pictures it looks like the lash might have been tight on a few lobes. The base circles are shiny like they've had the rocker arms riding tight on them.Just a couple more observations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvey19k Posted July 15, 2012 Author Share #17 Posted July 15, 2012 ok cool ill put it back together and see what happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zed Head Posted July 15, 2012 Share #18 Posted July 15, 2012 On second thought, where's there's a dent, there will be displaced, raised, metal.Make sure that the area around the dent doesn't have a raised edge that would wear the rocker arm and screw up your lash measurements. You're in uncharted territory. Some very careful work with a whetstone might do the trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diseazd Posted July 15, 2012 Share #24 Posted July 15, 2012 Sivey19k.......I hope you were better with an M16 than an N47LOL. My advice......Get someone else to do your motor work.....you're just not having much luck. Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
