you know i don't think anybody on here has given you smart remarks . and i don't think any mechanic on here has looked at your car. everybody has tried to give you advice based on your discription of the problem. brian gave you a logical suggestion to your unique problem without trying to be rude.your reply was a little defencive "not to sound like an a--hole i run a garage and build race cars". relax big guy . it's hard to diagnois a problem like this with out being there with hands on. you should know how it is running a garage and building race care in all. i can't figure out how a wireing problem, a bad distributor, and a bad ground cam could seize up 9 + lifters twice? who's cam and lifters are they? there tech dept. should probably know about your problem with there product. no offence towards you.

It's funny, nobody seemed to catch the one about pushrod bearings! When's the last time anyone changed a set of those? :lol:

I think we need to lighten up a little, don't you? If you can't have some fun on here then what's the point? Especially when the symptoms and problem descriptions don't go hand in hand.
