Well I got my car back together and when I cranked it over it sounds like I have no compression. I think my valves are not adjusted correctly. When I adjusted them I waited till the exhaust valve started to move then tightend the intake enough till the pushrod would bearly turn with my hand, then tightened it a 1\2 a turn could this be my problem?:joy:

Yeah, you could have them to tight. If your are tightning nut until the pushrod is barely moving that is wrong. You only run the nut down until the pushrod has no up and down movement, then go your additional 1/2 turn.

Thanx, I will let you know how it goes tonight.

I wonder if its possible if I hit the pistons hit the valves? I have flat top pistons.
