i installed a cam in my engine yesterday,and now my engine sounds like a sewing machine . what causes this and is it normal ?
which cam? which motor?
5.3 220/224 570/580 on 112
Did you install springs and pushrods to match as well?
yes ,it doesn't sound like a bad lifter.
Have u retuned it?
yeah, nelson came thru like always. i read on other fourms that sometimes this is normal ,but i doing my own research.
Its completely normal. But just for the sake of things, I would take the valve covers off and make sure the rocker bolts are tightened to at least 22 ft. lbs.
Single springs aren't as loud as dual springs...which ones you use?
The sound of power!!!!
Sewing Machine = Power? What kind of weed they got up there in AK???????? :D
