Me again, My 70 cuda has the bone stock 54 year old 440 in it, Going to have the timing chain replaced in 2 weeks. I can fix MOST things on the car, so far have replaced speedo pinion and cable, carb, got an electronic distributor on the bench and a number of other things but I'm not what you would call and "internal" expert by any means ( yea I'm getting better ) . I have a very noisy ( loud) valve train on the 2-8 side that is bothering me. I have had a few comments that I have an exhaust leak but I was thinking that an exhaust leak but would not have alot of clatter noise to it? The 1-7 side is quiet and normal ( or so it appears ). I have plans to have the motor rebuilt ( After Jan 1 ). Could a blown exhaust gasket cause all the noise ? I'm not against pulling the manifold and replacing the gasket but before I go thru that wanted a 2nd opinion. May just live with it until rebuild.
THANKS !!!!
