Default Brute Update...
Ok, got the heads off. It looks like I have one bent pushrod due to a roller rocker coming off it's stud and getting in the way of another. This is what was pinning the Intake valve open intermittently. No apparent damage to anything other than the one pushrod. I'm taking the parts over to Meridian for inspection and will get together with those guys to plan the build out for this season. Hopefully, I can get her back on the street by April.
