Does anyone know where I canfind a skematic or a diagam of the rocker arm assm. for a 1957 , 235 that is going into a '51 3100? The friend that is rebuilding it says he thinke something is missing in the center of the assm. where the two rods fit together, not the part that holds the two rods together , which is also part of the oiling system, but the parts on each side of this. Any help would be greatly appreciated , especially a diagram. Thankyou

I have a 1957 235 with '848 head and the center looks just like Shipwright's link, with a small spring and spacer/shim on each side of the oil connector. The shim goes on the inside against the oiler like the pic.

However, the oil connector itself looks different. It does not return back to the head but is pinched off at the top so it will spray oil on top of the rocker assy.

Yeh; I showed Shipwright's link to the friend who is rebuilding mine and as he had figured, we are missing the two small shims or washers and also the two springs. One spring and one shim on each side of the center oiler. Don't really know where we are going to get them. Can anyone help? Thanks
