Bender sorry about that deal, I wonder how much force is needed to pull a stud right out of the head. Glad to hear Moe had a good time even with the breakage. Hope your trip home was a easy one !

On a blown engine the exhaust valve has to open against some pretty high cylinder pressure (and the valve spring) so the exhaust rocker/pushrod/lifter are highly stressed, that is why I run a 9/16" pushrod on the exhaust, just found the next weak link.

No need to take the head off, but the engine is out.
