klackety clack noise....one more possiblilty



Hi all...

There was a post about a clackety clack noise from someones car...and this
was possibly diagnosed as either a lifter problem or exhaust noise.  If this
was on a 413, dont forget that the rocker shafts on those older engines were
bolted down on a separate pedestal, not a cast in pedestal like on the later
big blocks.  I had one of those thru bolts that hold the pedestal down get a
bit loose.....instant clackety clack noise you would have sworn a lifter
collapsed if you had heard it.  It may be worth pulling a valve cover and
checking those bolts just in case!

Take care
