Hi all,
I have a chevy 327 in my truck, and I recently pulled my intake off to change the gaskets.
As I was adjusting my rockers, I noticed tht the top edge of one lifter was not lining up with the top edge of the bore cast into the block. I thought as long as the travel appeared to be the same as the others, I should be ok.
My thinking was that maybe the upper surface of the bores (lifter valley area) was cast a little off for just that one bore, but I find that unlikely.
Is this a common thing? (casting defect?)
