After getting exhaust on the truck the motor had noise that sounded like a couple rockers needed to be adjusted. I pulled the passenger side valve cover and my eyes were met with the sight of three rocker arms sideways. The second pushrod from the rear of the engine is bent up top a bit and must be bent very badly below as I can't pull it out. The other two pushrods where the rockers were off came out straight. I didn't even have the heart to pull the driver side valve cover.


What a terrible let down after being so close to the end. I guess the passenger side head must come off to get that pushrod out and see what damage is done.

I assume I should be expecting bad engine damage . . . ??
