I have a 350 bored 30 over. The cylinders measure 4" exactly. World products S/R Torquer 67 cc heads, Comp cams XE268, edelbrock performer intake, I just ordered some Thorley tri Y headers. The...

The block looks good. I only drove it about 1 mile after it happened and that was at 30 mph. What type of head gasket should I get to stop this from happening again. I have a 4" cylinder, should I...

I just got the passenger side head off and sure enough, you guys were right. The head gasket is blown right between the two middle cylinders! Man you guys are good. That is a cheap fix. Lots of...

I checked the rest of the cylinders. I actually have two bad ones. Both middle ones on the passenger side of the engine. Could that be a blown head gasket? That would probably be the best case...

Well, I did a compression check and sure enough I have a cylinder with 0 psi :( I pulled both rocker arms and they looked fine. Both push rods looked fine also. The springs don't seem to be...

I hope this problem turns out to be something that cheap. I checked the PCV, it rattles when I shake it.

Yeah, no loud clicking or smoke out the exhaust. Oil pressure is fine. That's why I am leaning towards the coil going bad.

What is a collapsed lifter? I will do the compression check tomorrow and let you know the results. I think I would rather it be a bad coil than have to mess with replacing a spring or a lifter.

I'm going to go buy a gauge to do the compression check. I just have to take out a spark plug and screw the gauge into the plug hole and then crank over the engine with the battery disconnected to...

I have an edelbrock q-jet with the big secondaries. They are closed. I am not sure about what you are refering to as the upper and the lower. The two back valves on top of the carb are closed. ...

I didn't change anything from the way it was set up when we put the engine in it 1000 miles ago. You don't think it has anything to do with the valvetrain? I was messing with the ground on the...

Do you think it could be the coil not able to create enough spark when I give it gas. That would make since. Do they go bad all of a sudden like that?

I tried checking that but I didn't see any spark when I removed the plug wire and held it next to the engine while it was running. Should it be strong enough to come out of the boot and hit the...

:) I wish I could. It sounds like an old tired engine that chugs when you press the gas. Sounds kinda like a lawn mower.

Vacuum secondaries, and they're closed.

I have been doing some searches and reading up on the problem I am having. I am worried that maybe I lost a cylinder or something by bending a push rod or breaking a spring. Is it possible to jump...

I can't say for sure if the valves moved up and down exactly the same amount. They all moved up and down and I didn't notice any differance in the distance traveled. The carb was getting plenty of...

It was running fine before I mashed on the gas. I changed out the fuel filter but that didn't fix it.

Okay, I think I screwed something up. I have a 350 recently rebuilt (1000 miles ago), edelbrock q-jet carb, XE268 cam. I took it out yesterday for a spin and got on it a little bit. All of a...
