  1. yep.. you will here it click with engine off, or run the engine and it will activate the engine brake..
  2. I guess I missed that part... I thought he was waiting for the machine shop answers... Ooop's...
  3. Aahhhhh ??? Aahhh???? dunno.. let my fix another beverage.. I'll get back to you..
  4. Onyx..... It's ... 'Non-Binary' Come on man!!
  5. Snap-On $500.00 ish.. sorry.. jojo
  6. Sweet !!!
  7. 🍻
  8. yes the rag was left in the engine, I did a ton of work to the engine to try to fix it, and all efforts failed.. When I was at whits end,, I went to pull the heads,, funny thing is... the intake was the last part I had to remove before pulling the heads.. Had I pulled the intake first.. well.... you know.. Next time i will put my 3 foot bore scope in the manifold.. you may want to do the same if this goes further...jojo
  9. I know about chasing this issue on an AC.. Remember these Onyx?
  10. Check the cam sensor and the flywheel sensor. while its running, unplug one of them. if it shuts off, the other one has an issue. the flywheel sensor wires are prone to damage because it gets all the spray off the steer tire.. pull the loom back and gently tug on the wire from the plug up towards the engine as far as you can, its about a foot..
  11. I'm a short person, it helps me check the oil. And Hell Yeah it'll hold my beer and the cooler next to me.
  12. I'm out of likes,. So. FJH, here it is... 👍
  13. I just went back to page 1 and read it 4 times.. with all that has been posted, I came up with 1 question.. did you check the rocker arms to see if they 'rock' smoothly? I know that E-7 push rods can be installed wrong, off to the side of the lifter. I was wondering if a rocker arm hung up in the valve open position, and the push rod jumped off the top of the lifter.. Im really 'Reaching' on this one.. Jojo
  14. You could whip up one of these bumpers.. 😉
  15. I actually use a small kitchen strainer when I am trouble shooting an issue. Gear oil is a bit thick but the pieces fall into the strainer.
  16. Those straight sixes were tough.. I had a few of them. I'm a Chevy guy every day, but the Ford 300 is the best one.. I currently have 2 straight sixes. My '48 Int. KB-7 has a 290 cid. When I stomp on it in low or first, the torque is awesome.. It's a puller.. The 454 in the C-10 is gonna cost me.. I am also going to freshen up the TH-400 as well..
  17. That's a VOLVO issue.. Have you ever used the 3-M buffing kit's from N.A.P.A. ?
  18. its a southern truck... it a C-10.. hyd. lifters. He tried to win a street race against a motorcycle.. he said he WON... but I own his broken truck... I WON.. jojo
  19. I looked back..... He said ALL got sent out... so he may not have been involved in the actual install's.. No offense, just trying to get a better perspective... jojo
  20. in his post he said new cam.. unless I read it wrong, but I didnt see new lifters.. heck, anything could have happened.. How do we know his driver didn't over rev. it, on a downhill run, ? I did fleet management for a long time and I heard so many story's,,,,,,, looking back, my brain would hurt trying to figure out the B.S. ... Yep, another one of my opinion's.. jojo
  21. yeah me too... I havent touched my '48 in over a month, and this weekend I have a Mack quad dump, coming to my shop for a 'C' P.M. and I bet I will have repairs.. My truck will wait again..
  22. Nite-Nite...... See you tomorrow...
  23. You all set,, I recommend the cam timing tool if you dont have one...
  24. do you have the essential tools to do the build? ie: cam timing tool, rear cover hold downs, main seal installers, barring tool, heck I'm loosing track... anyway, get prepared, and dont be scared... jojo
