    Rockers VS Cam

    Is it easier to install rockers with the cam out of the head or the other way around?

    Thanks for your help

        Theres a very specific way to do it, I installed my rocker shafts backwards and its also possible to mix them up. There is a write up somewhere on here.

          True, rocker shafts go one way. There is no difference between intake and exhaust shafts though.

            In Rockers vs. Cam, usually the cam wins.

            But not always...

              ��How do you tell what side of the rocker shaft goes to the front of the head?
              Would probably be good to know before I put everything back in B-)

                There's a slot for the "key" that locks it in place.
