super pissed Well I was installing my new Roller Rockers and Beehives today, and I was down to the last valve, and guess what the pack of Valve locks that I bought from Comp Cams was missing in half of a valve lock!!!!
What is going on?
Anybody else have this happen?
I am 100% sure I didnt drop it or lose it.

Does any local places sell those locks? Have them give you one out of the kit and then warranty it out of their stock.
95t/a you should probably read the Newbie FAQ instead of hijacking a thread.

There are High-Performance replacement Cap & Rotor kits made for these, MSD for ex.
Usually it's a fine running part, but when it decides to **** on you, if you aren't too experienced with this Engine, you are in for a day of fun..

I doubt it, they are 10 degree Comp Cams super locks, I dont think any manufacturer made 10 degree locks for any stock vehicles

Ah, we have MAS, don't know what it stands for, but they are the only local shop I know of. Other than TPiS, but I don't know what kind of stuff they actually sell at their place. MAS has tons of stuff, even T-Bucket kits lol

Well Capt.
I am looking to either Dyno my beast next weekend or run the 1st 1/4mile. maybe both! Happy B-day to me
However they are closing one of our Tracks this summer and then it is an hour to a 1/8 mile and 1 1/2 to a 1/4(which is always booked) Sad for LA figures why they have a street racing problem. Tons of Rice here.
Gotta get those 32V heads. Suppressing a lot of power right now.
Where is home?
