1956 G3 LS Oil or lack off

Post by tigerpaul »

Hi, Upon stripping engine the inlet/exhaust valve tops + their rocker arm tips were well worn, lack of oil seems
the likely cause. I believe this years model was fitted with jets to out board pushrods/rockers, which appear
to deliver copious amount of oil! no problems there.
Have fitted new rocker bushes + sleeves and felts, but worried the same will happen again as its easy for
oil to dump ( discharge ) to pushrod side.
Your thoughts / advice welcome
