ok well it seems the nomad needs repair.
60 nomad 348 250hp 4bbl
Well those who have seen the for sale forums know the story already
On a recent drive the car devolped a upper end tick on the left bank. I drove it home and pulled the vavle voer off and found 2 bent pushrods 2 almost wore though rocker studs and some messedup keepers.
Ive been serching the forum and internet for hours and got some ideas on what to do nexted. So ive come to ask the exprinced knowlegable people on 348-409.com.
I want to convert it to screw in studs and i was thinking of using mr gasket screw in studs due to its lack of head work. I plan on taking the heads of to install new vavle seals and to lap the vavles as well. o and what are some ideas for removing old studs is apretacted to.
I want to make it as relible as i can (well i would actually like to make it as strong as i can , bbc vavles and springs, 1.75 roller rockers and a 409 425hp cam but it to orignal to molest)
I need ideas for stock pushrods can i just use later one piece bbc pushrod as i hear the welded ball ends are crap and can i use bbc keepers as well.
Any ideas are very aprecated
