I just read that the rocker assembly blocks are not symmetrical.

How do you tell them apart? and if they are different, which ones go where?
Jake Raby
They are symmetrical... They can be inverted any way you like, BUT the proper way is with the groove down.

The rocker SHAFTS only install one way, but not the blocks. This is due to a chamfered edge under to match the taper of the rocker stud.

Are you refering to the Solid spacers that replace the OE springs in the Shafts?

thats good. One less thing to check for when i pull it apart again. smile.gif
must have interpreted that other post wrong.

I wrote that they arent symmetical. I meant the blocks have a proper orientation: the groove must be downward (for the retaining wire) and the bevel must be facing outward. When you take off the blocks, you'll see the part of the block facing outward has a slight bevel to it, as opposed to the part that makes contact with the head, which has a straight edge.
