504 gaseer is up and running on all four cylinders now. Bought a new pushrod, $50.00 ouch, installed, set valve lash using this forum. Got to wondering and researching forum on what might have contributed to causing intake valve to stick and break pushrod...and realized that my engine oil pressure was at 20 psi when warmed up and that might be contributor. Discovered oil pump bottom cover was warped. Bought a pump on ebay for $10 and that bottom cover was warped also. Machined bottom cover flat, built a .010" metal gasket, and a .250" steel plate that bolts to, goes over perimeter, and over pump bottom plate...basically beefed cover up. Cranked engine up and she purrs like a kitten, pulls good, not smoking , and oil pressure is at 50 psi warmed up, and 150+ psi on each cylinder. This forum sure helped breath life back into this 504 gasser. Thanks...time to plow.
