Lifter collapsed, engine is gone
Just got the call. Lifter collapsed and got stuck in the bore hole (my ignorance is showing, I have no idea what that is). Several valves are bent, pistons are nicked, timing chain is shot, cam is suspect AND the block is gone
Wow, that sticks. Thats simular to what happen to mine, but not as bad as yours (no head danmage). I wonder why lifters are failing prematurely? Which short block are you going to install? 402???
