Great Story and info to add to the ‘bolt. My ‘59 also had the wrong rockers installed and it took me quite awhile to figure it out. The overflow tube however was not pinched off so no puffing going on. I was chasing a low oil pressure issue. Thanks for sharing!

One of our ‘bolters Pre ‘68 Dave, has a great website that covers the differences.
