Research shows some folks go upward with the lines right before the pump to hold some oil (mostly due to concerns about losing prime), and others like yours go more directly from pickup to pump. Makes it hard to figure what the determining factor is...some lose prime and some don't.
I have seen those purple rocker shaft stands on Arruzza's site as well as on ebay, they are reasonably priced. How do you like them?
I collected a potpourri mixture of MP rockers, stock wide pads, and narrow pads. But lately I've had my eye on roller rockers for this engine. The OEM ones will still work for another application I have in mind, for later.
