People Tried To Tell Me This Was Normal.. I'm Here To Tell You IT'S NOT!!!  

We call that a “blue sky” recovery in the HVAC industry. Would get you in trouble in Canada :)

whoever first put those rockers did a hack job. most aftermarket heads come with 2 piece adjustable guide plates.

You actually didn't have to take any lines off the AC. The condenser can rotate up enough to get the cam in/out with both lines attached. I have done it many many times.

Sounds damn good Brew2L. Glad you got the valve train issues resolved. I could tell it was driving you crazy.

My Brother! Great job hanging in there and solving the issue. I am sure that it would have lead to more issues. Always follow your instincts… when you get that feeling that something isn’t right then keep digging and working until it is resolved. Most times people say it should be that way or just leave live with it …is because they can’t figure it out. 💯👊🏾

Shout to Anderson, for coming in clutch, helping our boy BREW2L with all needs to make this happen, See yall at FTO

Awesome man! I’m so glad you got it fixed! Love that Anderson can!

Damn I'm glad you got this figured out and fixed once and for all. Sounds awesome

Awesome 🤩!!! I’m glad you figured it out!! Thanks for sharing the fix. It sounds great 👍🏻

Good stuff, Brother! I've been wondering about those lifter magnets. Thanks for the review.

🔔😎 Excellent !! 👍👍 Here's an old "no air" valve spring trick. Cylinder on TDC. Roll the piston down either way. Feed a couple feet of 3/16 cotton rope into the spark plug hole, then roll the piston up to hold the valves😲. Works at the track when you broke a spring and you don't have air. Trick from the 50s. 👍👍😎😁

Super cool magnet tools there! Engine sounds great! Great work! Thanks for sharing the info!

Awesome work / VIDEO...Congratulations on your win !!! ✌😎

Great video lots of great info in it!!! Great job and the car sounds awesome!!! 💪🤘👍

Good job on figuring that out! It does sound a lot better!

Sounds amazing great job

Sounds good man!👍💪

Sounds good now... Great job sticking with it.

Very good video old friend. Forgot about those lifters tools!

Another great video 👍🏻

How were you able to evacuate the system without making a mess from the refrigerant?!? Looked like you were just taking air out of a tire

“Take the condenser out” E.P. A has entered this comment section

Cam sounds real nice man! Thanks for the lesson!

When the Anderson lifter tools get a little old, the shrink tubing that holds the magnet can split. Not good. Check them first , if the magnet sticks on the lifter, and not the threaded rod than your day just got longer. It is easy to fix before bad stuff happens.

Thats some slick stuff!!! Those lift tools ive never seen!!

Those adjustable guides best thing since sliced bread, they came with my afrs but not my edelbrocks

Sounds great 👍

Loved the video....

I’m in Statesboro ga and saw a black fox body for sale right off the interstate. Immediately thought of you

I used to use those telescopic magnets I've always had a bunch of them laying around the magnet itself is strong real strong so glad to see something out there to do that trick with

That sounds wicked! That is such a cool car!

Great video

🔔😎 Just realized during rewatch😲 "Tappet" tools.... Boy, THAT's old school !!! Nobody under 40 uses that term. LOL.👍😎 They were termed tappets because in ancient days everything was solid lifters (til @ the SBC). Hence, tapping noise = tapp-ets.

Now I'm over here thinking I didn't adjust my guide plates correctly. Having a slight chatter still so thank you!

Glad you beat that ticking gremlin, you've been putting in some work the last couple weeks. But mmmmmmm that cam 🤤

Thank you!! I asked a while ago if you have tried those. And if not would you try now I know

Hopefully you can finally sleep good knowing it's right and tight, sounds freaking awesome sir, thanks for the helpful info

This was a lot of good information for me. I have been dealing with valvetrain noise for a long time and just didn't know where to start beyond the rockers. Did I miss why you changed out the valve springs? Was it to fix the noise or was it because of the new cam?

I absolutely love the content. Can you have Mrs brew2l make a budget for fender covers? All the work put into painting the silver fox and all I see is your 28 husky pants button scratching paint 😂😂😂

The other cool thing with these heads is that highport shaft rockers fit them perfect. There are great used sets everywhere.

Those lifter magnet tools...manoman those are a nice solution. Well done.

9:40 Gave me a gasp.... I'm sure glad that cam didn't flop to the floor😲😲😲

So jealous of that n412 cam 👌😅

Dangit. Now I gotta go check my guide plates. Haha

Good catch, I think I have a issue also in the valvetrain. Its noisy and down on some power.

Glad you got it right my man,and she is talking shit,lol!👈💯

You didn't just let the AC gas out into the air right next to you. 🤪🤪🤪🤪

Funny story I recently purchased a 95 Cobra it needed a new plastic Cowl panel. While taking it off I broke the old plastic vaccum lines going to the washer nozzles. I didn't fix it right away because I didn't have the parts to fix at the time. Then I did a few mods like Screamin Coil, and a couple things. After that I drive the car and it bucks and snatched and acts stupid. I put a new tfi Module and new connector on coil, and new voltage Regulator connector. All needed. Still bucking and snatching. Corrected timing and still did it. I finally got around to fixing The Big Vaccum Leak from the Washer Nozzle vaccum lines and bam smooth running car. No bucking and snatching. Check All Vaccum Lines. Including those going to Washer Nozzles

Shew wee that 20/50 wouldent cut it up here on the cold winter north Carolina mountain mornings. Great video brother! I'm think about the n41 cam

5:00 that reminds me of "fishing" for chicken chokers. lol sticking a blade of grass down one of their holes and waiting on it to grab it

Yup she's telling us all kinds of stuff Now!

Sounds exactly like my B21 cam

One nice thing about a FE motor the hole for the push rod is big enough to remove the lifters without removing intake that tool looks pretty handy to bad there wasn't some way to replace the lifter without removing intake I need to replace one put new lifters in and one is bad.

BREW2L Have you ever done a video on re-charging your A/C compressor? I"m at that stage in my rebuild and i was hoping you may have a video or may consider doing a video showing us?

Dang those were real bad off center on the roller tip.

Looks like u got brother good stuff..

Let the freon be free, lol. Yup my valve train is super quiet

"She's talkin' shit now." 😂👍

Hopefully my 1 year Fox project will be wrapped up soon, work has been crazy busy.

Gunna be a completely different car.

vr1 oil is great...ben having a rod nock in my vw for 2 years now and still driving it...yes i have a new motor to go in it but till the old one blowes ...fuck it all so run it in my 89 mustang with 138.576 miles on it so far so good

🔔😎 It looks to me that with stock the dog bone lifter links that both lifters need to come up simultaneously so the dog bone doesn't twist and bind because one lifter is way up and the other not. Just thinking 🤔 Trick idea👍👍 I'll use it👍👍

I use those adjustable guide plates and have a hell of a time with them, I have afr 195cc heads and the push rod is all the way against the aluminum in the hole to try and get them centered

VR 1 is all I put in my Race car's great stuff.

🔔😎 Recently when taking pushrods out of the box Brew made a comment about if hardened pushrods really are hard. Here's how to tell. Get a good FMB (flat mill bastard) file and run it across each pushrod. If it scratches it, it is NOT hardened. Check your guide plates this way also. One time I saw soft pushrods in guideplates and they wore almost through until they bent. Guess where all that metal went. JME 👍😎

Epa will be seeing you soon!!!!😮😮😮😮😮

Yes great job in finding out the problem, she is sounding so awesome, she should be a neck snapper now.

dam i just realized im lazy.....loving my stock mustang more and more every day i just turn key and go!!!!

People are very unhelpful when it comes to car problems and sounds. People always seem to want problems to be no big deal. Had a knock in my 05 GT and couldn't find the problem. A dude who knows better seriously told me to throw in 40w oil and it will be good. Found out that I had a rolled cam lobe on cylinder 4.

Hey great video, I'm having problems with my cooling fans, it overheated the other day sitting at a drive through. The screen on the super sniper said my fans were on but when I lifted the hood they weren't. What do you suggest Think I should run a toggle switch that way I know it's on. I have aluminum heads and you know I could cause alot of damage if I overheat again Thanks bro I know your busy

Are those heads the 20-450 model Canfield's? Possible 300+cfm at only 500" lift when ported.

The fan isn't that bad. Sounds like minimal ambient background noise. Voice is still clear an loud enough.

Unrelated community question 😁 What's the quietest performance mufflers? I'm getting to old for the noise. 90 T5 mild build. Thanks guys.👍👍😎

I’ve got the same hydro lifters, and I’m curious, do you not prime your oil pimp to fill the lifters when you do work like this that drains everything?

Brew2L, I noticed that you are using a 1.6 rocker ratio rocker arm. Have you ever played around with different ratios ?

Please explain how the water got in the oil pan also where did you say that you got the things that holds rollers up out the way from & their name thx in advance

There is power to be had from optimizing your valve train. Those pushrods are garbage and the 3/8 stud is flexible. The budget may not allow it, but something to think about later. How much preload did you put on lifter?

Was there any signs or wear or anything on the trickflow cam?

My motor guy told me with hydraulic roller lifters the 50w oil is a little to heavy for them and should use a 40 or 30 but I say f@#$ that and I run the 20/50 as well bud

so you think it was the guide plates causing the rockers to run crooked and hit somewhere on the retainers?

Don’t you just hate valve train noise? Way to figure it out and take us along for the ride! She sounds wicked now! 🦊

It sounds a hell of a lot better, yeah valve train noise is only letting you know that something isn't right, I have never and any problems with it on anything that I have built, I did hear a little noise on beans at first only when u held your head really close to the engine and it freaked me out but it cleared up and was probably a lifter not fully primed up but it was really quite and not as noticeable as they normally are they were the one's they came out with a few years ago in 2017 i think . So I knew that u had a little issue somewhere because I could hear it but it's fixed now and that was a great excuse to get a bigger cam as well because you know that is what some of the noise was coming from😉.................. 🤣😂🤣 i just watched a video where someone used those to put a cam in and next time I do a swap im going to get some of those as well. Ive got new valve springs on the way and going with 1.7 roller rockers because I ended up with some cheap springs that I thought was a all comp cams stuff and it was all but the springs and at the dyno my cam is supposed to pull to 6500 and it peaked 422rwhp at 5700 so there's more in it and Im going to get it all because im greedy and want all the power 😂🤣😂

🔔😎 I'm still wondering if all roller lifters (per engine type) have the exact same diameter rollers. Different diameters would affect cam timing a lot. 🤔🤔

Hey we’re did you get the lifter holder again??

🔔😎 Just caught it @ :40 (and 23:43 still shot) as you said "pass the camera by". Look at that rocker/ valve tip carefully. (The rocker straight in front of the roof truss) Not lined up. Right? Now look at that retainer. Doesn't fit the spring. 🤔🤔😎

My 86 gt is making valve train noise but I haven't had the time to look into it 😅 has a cam heads and 1.6rr. Hopefully it's nothing serious.

🔔😎 Was there evidence of the blue rocker edge touching the valve stem, or just slipping sideways? 🤔🤔

How are you measuring installed height and seat pressure?

What brand headers are you using on that car?

I’m not sold on the fix.. I still hear it. Different from a rod knock and both your motors did it..

I have the pedestal mount rocker arms will I need guide plates for that setup as well?

Wow. You made me cringe on that first passby

Hmmmm im going with a carb swap 88 5.0ho in my 79 and t5!! wanting a cam thats gonna talk alot of shit!!!🤣🤣🤣

I really hope you don't take this the wrong way. Your car is very beautiful. Why don't you use fenderProtectors.

You didn't want to check valvespring length and shim as needed? Just going to trust the cups and valve job is good?

Where do you buy that high zinc oil? Never seen it anywhere

Can you fell a different in power over the stage 1 cam?

I can't believe anyone would say valve train noise is normal...yes solid lifter can make a bit of noise but only on cold start or excessive lash. Anytime you have noise your causing in necessary unnecessary wear. Where you have experience with the 5.0 do you think long tubes are worth the clearance issues? As far as hooking it up that's not a problem, where I'm a professional fabricator/welder I'm getting a 2.5 mandrel bent builders kit with an x-pipe out the back I may use the fake cats I found online just in case.just incase.but if it's not worth it on a efi 5.0 I wouldn't bother. It's a sn95 vert so I'm never heavily modding this car other than mild aluminum heads cam n intake. where I'm hoping some day of getting an 32v sn95 cobra even tho I'm not a huge fan of ohc engines but performance potential of those is really high.

It always disappointing for someone first thought of a camshaft is the soud the cam makes instead of the performance just saying

@brew2l bro have some fun for me man!!!
