Hey ColoradoDave...
I didn't mean to sound like I was questioning you, or your thoughts on what happened. I was just thinking out loud...
If anything, I think that is was a catastrophic failure, that happened to a fellow who was told he has something he doesn't.
I don't have a very good track...
Kern dog,
I got outta hand.
It's my option not to post on something I may not agree on.
What I should have said is something such as (like?)this...
When I was writing your name, my spell checker spells Keen, and a few times at that. It takes a few times to get it right.
So, I guess I just...
Well said Steve!
Much better than My reply.
I have nothing good to add...
this is the very reason I hesitate to join a forum...
I'm tired of the GD internet.
Never have phonies & bullies had such a vast
opportunity to inflate their own egos.
I guess I will try take my own advice re...
Who the hell asked you?
Looking at the pic of you, I see out of style, outdated, etc...
What a thing to post.
None of you guys has had your spell check make a mistake?
Stupid thread from behind the safety of your computer...
So whatever dude, why don't you chill.
At the end of the day you're no...
Sorry I didn't see this new thread, I had replied to your initial post regarding your valve train troubles...
Good luck, I hope you're back on the road soon...
Hey again...
I really think the valves were adjusted prior to engine start up.
But adjusted like a solid lifter, when it really was hydraulic.
If the push rods were too short, they would have fallen out, lifter could come out of the bore, oil pressure goes to zero...
The wear on the adjusters &...
Hello...
Dang, we are gonna need to think this out...
The whole reason behind hydraulic lifters is so you have no lash...
Maybe the valve lash was adjusted without the lifters being pumped up...
When the lifters got oil they pumped up, took up all the lash, and wrecked the pushrods.
I worry that...
Hey Sputnik 440!
Sorry you're having trouble...
I don't want to steer you wrong, it's been quite awhile since I've been in an engine.
But I would think perhaps getting a pair of those adjustable pushrods...
Then adjust the length so you have proper rocker pushrod geometry.
Checking pushrods...
Ghost rider...
I'm so glad you have been reunited with your daughter!!!
Whatever they're worth coming from me, you & your daughter
are in my thoughts & prayers from now on...
I wish only the best for both of you...

Hey Moca man!!
How are things in the real North?
Just about ready to bring the bike out...
When the ice melts off of my North facing driveway...
I haven't forgot about those hood pieces...
I haven't found them yet, but I also haven't checked beyond the basement.
I have other parts stashes out in...
Hey folks...
I wanted to share an important detail when you depend on a pistol.
I have been lucky to train with some really awesome people!
For a guy from Canada... Well, looking for somewhere warm to help my broken
body, spending time at the Ben Avery range is great therapy!
I want to say that...
Hey Big Sugar!
Please confirm with Garys1969RR and IQ52...
But if your previous heads were shaved, there is a possibility your intake has been shaved as well...
I remember seeing in a DC book... 0.012 off the intake for every .010 off the heads?
Please verify my thoughts... It's been a long...
Yeah up here in communist Canada handguns with less than a 4.15" bbl & I'd say 4.25" because you can't trust the guy measuring, are Prohibited. That's why I got oher 6 1/2" bbl cut down to 4.25". Otherwise I may have even gone with the 2 1/2" version. Since we couldn't have longer barrels up...
Thanks Bladecutter...
That is beautiful! You are quite a craftsman, and obviously channeling a wonderful woman! Peace brother!
You know BC, the only other forum I go on is Bladeforums...
Damn Bladecutter...
First I'm so sorry man...
The true horror of random violence is only understood by those who have experienced it...
Thank you for sharing that...
There is nothing more to be said other than our thoughts & prayers are with you...
And to take your advice "ARM your women" Our...
True That!!

8 home invasions that we know about in a ten mile radius...
Not on the news, but on the police scanner (my kin are with "citizens on patrol").
What's fueling the crime?
Drugs... It's not just a big city problem anymore...
Our small towns are like some bad "B"...
Totally agree...
You know, better to know how to shoot and not have to, than to have to shoot and not know how to...!
Up here in Canada...
Anyway, I bought my wife a Taurus Judge.
We can only have the 6" barrel version, though 4.25" would be legal.
So I got her barrel cut to 4.5, and the...
