Welcome to my world.. i deal with the public at large and deal with it 11 hours a day
the best is when they call you with a question... you give them an answer then they argue with you... why the **** did you call me then? I'll take my 40 years of experience and go **** off
VA gave me their decision today, denied again. Why? Cause my unit back then fubared up the paperwork…

After putting that lumpy Crower in my MoFoCo 289, I told myself "Self, go to the junkyard and get some valve covers to put holes for the socket if you do this again!"
Glad I didn't have the headers on when I fired it up. Cast iron less affected by squirty oil

I have always been instructed that with hydraulic lifters, you should close all of the play, and then add 1/4 or 1/2 turn more. This is especially true with high ramp camshafts and higher RPM's expected....
I have a set of Big Block valve covers , tops cut out, just for that purpose....
You Look the Part Eric !!!
I was working auto hobby shop. Guy needed valves adjusted in a Chevy luv truck. Well I did the old, run it and adjust till quiet. Adjusters were on rockers. Tough to say the least. Broke one Adjuster. Oops good enough zeal er up...I have a set of Big Block valve covers , tops cut out, just for that purpose....
Yep but I’ll keep trying. I’m good at failing… but suck at quittingBummer!
Made it back home after car shopping for my grand Daughter. The car we went to look at only had 19,000 miles on it and looked in decent shape. Salesman said it was a 3 cylinder Chevy. OK! took it for a test drive and was making a banging noise on the front floorboards that even my feet could feel. We stopped opened the hood
and the engine was rocking like an out of balanced 3-legged dog. NOPE, took it back and walked away.

It's a nippy 68 here today.... brrrr
Did it have 6 and run on 3 or was it actually a banger?
Sounds like a Sonic or Aveo
Glad you were there to kill the swindle Fred
I needed some risers for the front feet of the dryer. Crete won't be bothered by a little trickle of water going by. I poured 2 different ones. I think the rectangle ones will work better. Fingers crossed. Hey, it was the wife's idea. I'll roll with that. Peel off the plastic and they will be flared at the bottom.
I like it!!
BTW.. fun fact... last night i was going through **** to get ready to put fenders on... i get my antenna and notice.. the fenders i got from AZ don't have a antenna hole 
and i'm not gonna try drilling one... we only have like 1 AM station left but damn... so, will make up a underdash antenna or maybe get a radio delete plate
