Thats nasty.

My rockers are fine. The pushrod even survived. Going to go drain the oil and start dropping the cradle probably.

Everything is unhooked and will probably wait till Sat to drop the motor.

Oil had more metal than I would like to see, but since it only ran a few seconds I'm just going to hope for now.

I'll check back in a few days.

Got a picker, stand, and help lined up for Saturday.

Starting to do some research on solid roller. I think I will finally retire this one from the streets.

Agreed, Im building a SR but it will be street drivin. Just b/c you have a SR doesnt mean it cant be street bound.
