Question, does anyone know where to get single replacement 5.7 rocker arms? From what I can see ( so far) the dealer will only sell complete sets with shafts? Any help appreciated. Got two that seem a little more oblonged than others. RIP Monte Smith Your work is a reflection of yourself, autograph it with quality.

All that said there is a newer style rocker assembly to improve oiling and ticking. The oil hole in the shaft is chamfered quite a bit in the newer ones to keep more constant pressure to the lifter and the wear surface in the rocker is larger. If I had some questionable ones I would buy the new set for both sides from the dealer... should be around $700 for all 4 assemblies.
