This thread may never go away!
So today I put everything back together on the engine preparing to fire it up. I poured oil on the rocker arm shaft so it didn't start running while
it was dry. It fired right up and runs good but...... no oil coming out of the rocker arms. darn it- I thought I had it done. I disconnected the oil
tube at the rocker arm shaft and started the engine - no oil coming out of the tube. The oil gauge is showing 14 lbs so I think that's OK.
I disconnected the oil tube on the drivers side and have good pressure there so it's just not getting through the tube. I'm thinking I may have kinked it
trying to bend it so it was tight enough to the engine so the push rod cover would seal. Looks like tomorrow it will be time to take it back apart again.
On a side note- the block crack repair seems to have been successful so at least I have that going for me.
