working on the wifeys Z28
So about 2 weeks ago my wifes 99Z started making a ticking noise from the front of the motor. My buddy and I did a little diag on it and found it to most likely be a lifter. Well low and behold I got the motor torn down this past weekend and number 1 lifter is shot. Took out thhe lobe on the cam too. Unfortunately we don't have the money to do all the bolt on and a bad ass cam while in there but we are putting in the comp replacements and deleting the AIR and EGR PCV systems. And Don is getting me a stock cam. I will get some more pics up later.

Who knows. It could of been a number of things. Her car doesn't get beat on at all. Not like my SS. I would expect my car to get a bad lifter. Oh well what can ya do.

maybe that's whats wrong, the car should be hammered on once in while. thats what can never figure out some of buddys would beat the livin shit out of there cars and i would always take care of my mine for the most part and i always seam to have more problems. good luck with the fix.
