e9500v8 Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Sounds like you got a loose valve I would def run the valves! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 That V8 sounds good I'll admit and I do agree you need to run the overhead as it appears to sound a little loose.This one sounds like home and is close to my favorite: Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

bubbamobilin Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Factory specs call for a 16/26 adjustment but I have been adjusting mine at 14/24. This just helps the adjustment last longer as well as keeps the hide on your kunckles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timothy Maikshilo Posted March 18, 2012 Author Share Posted March 18, 2012 Thanks guys, I've never adjusted the valves on an E9 so I am pretty inapt on the proper sequence. Any advise would be very helpful. Rob, I love watching that same video with that old V8, no other sound like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob, I love watching that same video with that old V8, no other sound like it.I first seen that one when it was quite new on there. I don't know what it is about those old V8's but they are definately one that hits home with me. I've not been able to find one of a loaded two valve V8 working yet so may make my own to post later this spring.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

Freightrain Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Here's my contribution again: Stans 500hp Superliner. I got a short clip when I got to move the truck last fall at the Cleveland show. It's on my phone and can't seem to figure out how to download it. Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

Timothy Maikshilo Posted March 19, 2012 Author Share Posted March 19, 2012 The 1992 E9 was quite expensive to rebuild and my wife would probably divorce if this one needed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
