Rocker Shafts- Washers?
Boy, I am sure full of questions these days as I assemble my 360.
Some may know from my other threads that I disassembled my new-to-me 360 to see what is in it. Or, maybe what ISN'T in it!
Do I remember seeing thin, hardened washers between the rockers and the hold down bolt and washer/spacer? It's been a while. Maybe the stock rockers are hard enough to not need them. The 1st picture shows how my shafts are assembled. There is a gap between the rockers and spacers. The 2nd shot shows the wear that is on all of the rockers, to some extent. The picture shows one of the worst.
This engine had a lot of wear on the connecting rod bearings, considering that it was in very good condition otherwise. Maybe this is why.
I hope there is a washer available. I don't want to reassemble it this way.
