i have to put a new rear main seal in my 440 this weekend. here's what i found when i drained the oil. what do you think it eating. lifter/cam lobe? this is definately not a good time for this. the packers will be here in 3 days.

Looks to me like bearings. I have seen that before, and it wasn't pretty .......

Just tore mine dwon from the wiped lobe deal.Hey pop the valve covers and hook a remote starter switch up,pop the coil wire and watch the rockers work.Alot easier than a compression test.

Modern oil does not adequately lubricate a flat tappet cam *No zinc, I use Rottella in all my flat tappet engines. Yes it has less zinc than it did, but it still has plenty.
