Ira,
I had my rocker shaft redone by Rocker Arm Unlimited. They know Healey
rocker shafts. Prompt service and a reasonable price.

Ira--
There's never anything wrong with doing a leakdown test but whether or not
the source is a worn rocker shaft will not be revealed by such a test.
I'd suggest pulling the rocker cover and observing how much oil is spewing
from the shaft bushings with the engine running. Have towels handy....

Short of pulling my head, is there anyway to test where the oil is coming
from? My rear air filter has a lot of oil blow by. I should clean it every
1000 miles or so. So is it coming from Valve stem seals, valve guides or
rocker arm??? When I adjusted my valves I did not see a lot of oil pumping
from the rocker arms. I plan to drive my car on a 3000 trip in Sept from
Portland,OR to Deadwood, SD fro Conclave and thought I should address this
before going.
