Hello all,
y Today, with the guidance of a fellow bolter, I adjusted my valves. After getting them adjusted, we felt like we see if the rocker arm assembly was getting proper oil. We found that the rear portion was getting plenty oil. Well, plenty for a 216 anyway. However the front half, not so much. Was getting very little. Even at a 216 standards. We made the decision to take it apart. Thinking, something is clogged. But, we found no such issue. What we did find, is a burr inside each of the front rocker arms. It is kind of a football shape. It's located directly across from the weep hole, and runs across the oiling grove. I attempted to attach a picture. But, it said the file was to big. Hopefully, you can get the idea. Has anybody experience anything like this before? If so, what is my best option? If I could just carefully file it down, would be my preference. Wouldn't cost anything but my time.

As always, any advice or help that you can lend would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Rugo
