LMAO--I am totally confused or you are. The RIGHT side of the engine IS the passenger side which is where cylinder #5 is. That's why I didn't understand why you were putting the RIGHT side valve cover on. Right and Left are determined by sitting in the drivers seat, not standing at the front of the truck looking into the engine compartment.

Well I got my push rods from ford today.
Anxious all day to get home and put them in looked at my rocker arm before reinstalling it and 2 cracks in it.
Guess I'll be going back to ford tomorrow. With my luck they won't have one in stock.
I'm going crazy not being able to drive it

Cam wipeout......
I have seen rockers that broke or spit a pushrod, the pushrod gets wedged and as the cam continues around the lobe can get wiped out. Usually only happens if people continue to drive with the miss.

I was wondering if that was what you were thinking. With as much as these motors cost i hope people shut them down before that happens. Seen a few small block chevys do that.
