Hi All

Ive started the engine strip and have noticed that the rockers are number stamped, not numerically but completely randomly!

1, 3 46, 34 etc?

Any ideas or conspiracy theories?

( it doesnt really matter as Ill be changing the heads anyway, just curious!)

Probably just casting/manufacturing marks or something.


Engine stuff is covered with numbers which most of the time mean nothing whatsoever now that it's not in the factory being made, biggrin

Stamped, or cast? Are they offset, at all? Are they stamped steel, or cast, or forged? Are they individual, or rail, ...

Do you have pics?

Best,
