This Is the basic assembly you look at under the vlave covers, the only thing its missing is the valve itself and the cylider head(I'll show ya later after the long week-end)

the old red truck is beat to F!#@

we finished pulling and tearing down(yes it was tearing down as opposed to disassembling , ask me the difference sometime)my old mans engine, we got half a zippy bag full of piston peices a bent connecting rod and oil pump drive shaft, several spun bearings indicating improper clearence both oil clearence and side clearence. the good news you may ask, the ford motorsports cam we had in there suvived along with the lifters. over all an interesting project that really we shouldnt have had to do but ended up doing anyways.
