Well ruined my head today buy messing up my timing chain tensioner. About how much am I looking at to rebuild my head? Would an LNF head fit on my block and everything just go together? Lol maybe a dumb question but who knows I'm desperate my dd is down.

 

id just buy a used head, off of one that is smacked at like a salvage yard.

 

As far as i know an LNF will not fit on an LSJ they are different. PM mexi_loco he has a couple LSJ heads

 

Would love to here the back story to this in more details.

 

Never replaced your timing chain tensioner with the latest revised one, or you somehow installed a new one wrong?

 

I had the randomly chattering sound from timing chain being loose. Ordered a new AC Delco tensioner from crate engine depot. Found one of the step by step guides on replacing it. Followed that then started it ten heard a horrible sound then hurried up and turned it off. Removed everything again and then saw a broke a push rod. I'm guessing I twisted in the tensioner the wrong way. Is there some kind of special way to put it in? I'm like totally screwed. Work and go to school full time now with only my wife's car and she does the same.

 

I have a good used head ready for you if you want. Has everything except the timing chain and it's components. PM me if you want. It has about 25k miles.

 

Lsj doesnt bot have pushrod. You prolly got a jacked up lash adjuster

 

Get a head and a new timing Set from ced.

 

It's was the piece connected to the rocker arm I think. I'm new to gm's lol.

 

Well the lash adjusters r towards to outside of the head and the valves r on the inside..plz post some picks

 

I have pics on my phone. How can I post em?

 

U need to get the photo bucket app and upload them to that

 

I must be retarded... Idk how to get them here.

These are what broke off ^

 

Yea that's not your tensioner lol

 

Lol I know that's not my tensioner. I said installing it wrong is what caused these to break off when I started the car.

 

Wanna say one of those is part of a lash adjuster and the other is a cam follower.

Here's a previous thread on your same issue.

Thats a lifter..o.o
Havent seen a one break like that before

 

Yeah... I'm not really sure what all I should replace yet but I'm sure it'll be a pretty penny.

 

Naw It shouldnt cost much

 

Well I figured when I screwed up my timing tensioner and started the car it maybe bent valves. Is there a certain way to screw in the tensioner?

Well I started my car with the timing chain tensioner installed wrong so it maybe bent valves. I literally removed everything and then screwed in the new tensioner and started the car and it was rubbing on something and making crazy sounds. What's the trick on screwing in the tensioner?
