Hi guys, I had my 235 chevy engine rebuilt; bored 40 over, rings, cam bearings, etc, etc; to the best of my knowledge the block is 1958 & I installed an 848 head on it; My problem is the engine had no oil to the rockers; I ran a 1/4” line from the gauge outlet to the rockers & solved the problem but the engine ran rough & all attemps to remedy it was not successful. Also when I adjusted the valves 1/2 turn from 0 clearance the engine would not run ( backfireing & no power, so had to back adjustment off to 0 clearance; engine then ran pretty well but sounds like a diesel. I then pulled the lifters & found that 4 of them were not pumped up, so do any of you have any ideas? Sorry about the long message, but trying to explain the situation. Thx for your help. Richard
