Did I wipe a lobe or ???

It's going back together with some mopar adjustables so I'll have to measure for new rods and order those, then get everything back together. Sort of a relief to see everything is fine thus far though.

Anyone got suggestions on a better valley type?
Hughes has several, that don't require head removal. Some have a clear plastic cover. You can see the cam when it's running. Check out the AR 300A. Might work for you.
