That's part of the front bracket, right? Any idea how that happened?

No Darin it has nothing to do with the front bracket and I know exactly what caused it.

Well Rodney, WTH is it? Or are we waiting for guesses.. Does that big smilie maybe mean the driver had some little part in it happening?
Damn google said it was part of the alt./tensioner area. I really have no idea, just googled the pt. number..

Now it looks familiar after you say that. I'm used to rockers that look a lot different than these.. I still gotta know, how did it happen?

It's starting to get a lot more frequent. Generally bends a pushrod or two along with it. We can get hardened pushrods, but somebody needs to build a better rocker.......our stockers suck.

I was at 42 maybe 43 hundred rpm's and floated a valve and smacked a piston. I guess the rocker arm was the weak link.
