    Got back last night. From a fun weekend @ Reading.Couldn't get the smile off my face. I need to call Manton on Tuesday, but I am burning # 2 intake pushrod. This time it was on the second run. I oil + lube them as taught. My EGT bundle is good, but #2 + #1 cyls. change the least. I am not going to get into tune up info,, But I thought someone would have a idea. that they would share without getting into there tune-up Thanks Don

    On the cam grove deal we have opened it up to .095 wide and .100 deep with no bad results in wear but the pushrods look great.

    Also we ran a kb block and I took a long drill bit and drilled the camshaft bearing hole the same size as the block oil passage after those two mods we havent any pushrod issues....yet!!:eek:

    push rod meltdown

    I had a problem with #3 int. and found a pc of silicone in the rocker shaft that was pluging the oil hole to the adjuster. Just a thought STAN
