Default well.. the heads are coming off

pretty sure a lifter crapped out on me..

after she warms up, it goes away.

question is... COMP OEMS or LS7's?

if yall think its something else.. say so.

how much power should I expect from a TSP 233 cam and stock 241's?

since I'll be in there might as well swap in a new cam.

You can rarely go by just what the noise is. I think you are already aware and ready... You're going to have to pull the heads and check it out. Good luck

its an auto

and yea... I usually tear down any car I get... already ordered some ARP Head bolts and LS7 lifters.

they will be here soon. may just throw some PRC 2.5's and a Tv2 at it and see what #'s I get.. Dave at yank is going to work up a 3600 for me.

I'm pretty sure a lifter has took a **** on me... just hope it hasnt ruined the lifter bore (dont think its THAT bad....) then again, its isnt holding GREAT oil pressure so metal may have already ruined a few bearings.

we shall see... I hoping just the lifter.
