broken bolts!

Well guys my miss finally got worse. The rear most drivers rocker assembly had bolt failure. I took the valve cover off and it fell on the ground! Anyways just thought I would share and was wondering if anyone has ran into this before. Thanks, Chad.

If the cast portion didn't break as well your lucky. Pretty easy fix either way. Pushrods OK? I'm sure that has happened many times.

Cast pillar deal looks good no cracks and pushrod looks good it happened when I was cruising at 65 MPH. I ordered bolts today hope to get it running tomorrow.
