Trans-Am nearing completion....again....I hope

Got my T/A home finally from the shop and it started making valvetrain noise for the 10 millionth time. I decided a mechanic was no longer sufficient and tore into it myself. Found 3 of the damn rockers came loose again! So in an act of fury I decided adjustable rockers weren't the way to go and removed them. I'm just going to sell them and go back to stock. So I got the rockers off, started pulling studs and the stud puller broke. So now I am waiting for a new puller. Should be here tomorrow. New pushrods showed up today. Puller and rockers will be here tomorrow. Hopefully tomorrow night I will have good news to share.

Oh yeah, it's the best, but when you screw with em you have to expect snags. If this is the last hurdle it didn't go too bad.
