Hey guys thanks for all the input, turns out the valve was worn on a angle I guess due to a loose rocker? Wore over time ? Enough to make it slip off eventually . Had a couple options grind the valve stem flat again or slap on a newer vortec 350 style rocker with guides on either side… it’s a 289, not planning on breaking any land speed records. We will see how it holds up. Down the road it may be due for an overhaul, 61 000 original miles and it’s just a Sunday driver for now , the patina looks nice , I installed a tach, temp and oil pressure sensor
