Re: What is wrong with my motor? Figure this one out!!

I say cam bearings installed wrong: the oil feed holes are not lined up properly with the oil galleys. Are the push rods correct? They can be restricted too, if not manufactured properly.

Can you make a quick video clip of the noise? Some of those double roller sets can be really noisy. The Cloyes double roller in my hemi has been making the same "rockity" diesel sound for 20 years now.
