ok...need some help guys....i'm at a loss.
i bought a 92 gt as a project car, i was told it has some porting on the stock heads and a cam(not sure what it is). There was some noise coming from the passenger side head area....pulled the valve covers off and found a rad. hose clamp in the rear bottom corner of the head. i figured that was the noise and after inspecting to make sure it hadn't caused any damage i buttoned it back up....well, the noise was still there, so i took it back apart. i found that the rockers on cylinder 2 and 3 intake and 2 exhaust were loose(in that order by looseness). there isn't any part defects as far as i or either of my auto instructors can tell. they are both gm guys soooo. when the cam lobe comes up on those cylinders comes up it douse take out the slack, but when the valves are closed the push rods and in-turn the rockers are loose.
first, i thought i had a few dead lifters, but now im thinking the push rods are too short or the cam is bad.....any ideas?!
Thx,
Kyle
