rocker stud problem
Hi, I have a 73 nova with a 350 from a 69 camaro and 2.02 heads on it form a vette. while pulling out of the drive way I noticed a tapping while trying to listen for it I noticed it suddenly stopped. I then realized that a rocker arm had probly fallen off. after investigating that turned out to be(judging by where the oil mark stopped) the case. while trying to fix the problem i noticed that the stud the rocker was on is about 1/2 inch higher then it should be and when I went to tighten the rocker nut the whole stud turns. I dont know if they are push in style studs, How can I tell if they are and what can I do to fix this problem???Last edited by trenchdog73; 02-15-2005 at 06:19 AM.
