It's got a nasty noise coming from the valve train?

As soon as my ex wife shows up here today with her lap top that has speakers, I'll listen to your video and get back to you.

My $300.00, made up from spare parts, computer doesn't have speakers...deep sigh...or is it whining? Yeah...probably so...

Listened to your motor and it sounds like sticking / dirty / gummed up lifters. The marvel mystery oil you've recently added should clean your lifters up in time.

The reason you're bending push rods has more to do with your slack, worn out, timing chain. The sticking lifters aren't helping though.

Ok so before changing pushrods out I should swap the timing set?

No I went with summit's own brand timing set for stock applications. It's an all steel strut roller set (no plastic parts) I'll go a head and get the Coyles when I rebuild the 390 I have.
