Subject: Re: My LT1 rebuild by rklessdriver on 2011/11/23 22:23:27 The LTX's do have the pin holes in the cam galley plugs.... they are to spray additional oil on to the upper cam and waterpump drive gears. That lobe damage looks like a rod hit it honestly.... but without inspecting everything I couldn't say for sure. When a lifter goes bad and damages a cam - typically it eats a track in the whole lobe.... When a lobe is damaged from lifter bounce it's always on the closing side flank of the lobe. With that kind damage on the cam lobes, the lifters are suspect big time.... I would not reuse lifters from that engine in anything.... no matter how good they seemed. Will |
