[Decline]

1969 camaro with non orignal 350 SBC with iron heads a mild edlebrock flat tappet cam, crane stamped roller rockers and mystery valves, springs, push rods all done by previous owner..But it does have all ARP hardware so thats a plus

I heard some clacking under the hood. Car had been idling funny yesterday afternoon. I thought maybe my recently changed timing was causing pinging?
Pop'd the hood..Distinct metal chatter from valve cover..Opend to find the rearmost rockers all twisted. Further inspection revealed 2 bent push rods.

Question, what else should I inspect for damage? One of the valve ends is messed up a little/flattened and put some wear marks on the roller tip. I would have to remove the head to change it obviously? Can i get away with just replacing the 2 push rods and reseting the valve lash to get back up and running?

I feel like that should be fine for now until I decide wither to change the heads out for aluminum or just swap an LH6 5.3 aluminum truck motor in there. Ive had my eye on one on craiglist for $750 with no accesories. Prbly run it carbed innitially for $ reasons
