Title: GreyMotor push rods
Post by: BrendanC on July 25, 2002, 04:49:36 AM
Can anyone help with one, or a full set of pushrods for a grey motor of the FC vintage. ???
I have found a few sets from people I know but they all seem to be too long. The ones from my motor are about 257mm long. The longer ones are all about 5 - 6mm longer and dont seem to give me enough adjustment on the valves :-/  I`m assuming the longer ones are from a 138 ???
Anyway, if anyone can help please reply and name your price. Thanks......

Brendan,  just wrecked a grey motor "L" block, so it should have the right push rods - I measured them at about 260mm in length.
You don't mention which state you are in.  I am in Victoria.

Cost is $10 the lot

I also have the rockers which suit this motor.

Regards    Ken

Thanks Ken, Yes I`ll grab them off you, my motor is L556827 so they should be the same. The rockers I have are in good nick so just the push rods would be great. I am a country vic member of the FE FC car club. (Traralgon). If you would like to give me your postal address I`ll send you some dough. Please let me know what the postage costs and I`ll include it aswell. :)
My postal address is: Brendan Crawford, 9 MacDougal Crt, Traralgon, Vic, 3844.
Thanks again.... ;D
