so basically what prevo said only im ****ing hardcore stressed after 3 days of laboring my ass off i have to pull the top off again and start anew... this time the ****er is going to be right ... the wrong pushrods were installed and it caused the rockers to dig into the studs... the studs became weak from the grooves and the pressure made them snap... thankfully and hopefully no damage to the bottom end... anyway plans are as follows(these might be a little detailed b/c this is also a to do list for myself)...
1. drain oil and get all the parts together that i need such as head gaskets, intake manifold gaskets throttle body gaskets, intake manifold
2. take the heads to the machine shop and get the studs pulled and replaced with screw in studs
3. reinstall the rocker arms + the heads and set the lash w/ the right pushrods
4. install the performer rpm intake(after modding it to fit
)
5. distributor
6. install new throttle body w/ AFPR + 90# injectors and attach fuel lines (upper @ TB)
7. fuel lines (lower lines), power steering(hoses + fluid), coolant, oil
8. Bolt on headers
9. Rewire the engine compartment (grounds on heads)
If anyone sees anything im forgetting let me know b/c if you dont ill figure it out when i do all this ****
