Greg OakleyParticipantDid you have the rocker shafts rebuilt?

Brian BrooksParticipantThe rocker tubes were cooked out and put back together. Concerned about where which rocker arm is after putting it back together. I had someone do this for me. Waiting on video from this morning to upload.

young oldsParticipantthat actually sounds very familiar. my 359n olds made a similar noise but it was whenever the engine was running. i wanna say i had a noise like that on one of my 62 cutlass but can remember for sure, seems like i remember an intermitant chirp/squeek. you checkes the rod bearings and main bearings correct?

young oldsParticipant*350 olds

Brian BrooksParticipantWe tore the engine down a 2nd time to check rods and mains. Found nothing wrong. Thrust was good. Cam looked good.
Sound is more prevalent on driver’s side.
Anyone have any issues with a lifter, lifter bore, or rocker arms?

young oldsParticipantdoes it make the noise with a load on the engine? like putting it in drive while on the brake, maybe rev it a bit. have you driven it at all? if so is it a constant noise?

Brian BrooksParticipantNoise is still there even when in drive. When I rev the engine the noise is not heard but I think it just changes resonance. I have driven the vehicle it drives real nice.
I am having another issue now. When I am cruising at 60mph the acts like I hit a headwind for a second then lets up. May be in carburetor or ignition.

Brian BrooksParticipantWell, it’s not in the valves. Found that out today.
