Helpneeded! Valvetrain ticking in SBC
I'm trying to help a friend solve a rocker tick/clack coming from his SBC. I have adjusted valves a few times and it wont go away.
It is not a consistent noise. It will clack 2 or 3 times then stop, then do it again. I have noticed one strange thing though. the allen setscrew on 1 rocker adj nut is not running down as far as all the others. all these lock screws are 1/8-3/16" down into the adj nut. The one is just barely below flush with the top of the nut.
Could it be a valve sticking in the guide? any suggestions on what else to look for?
Thanks folks.
