They rebuilt my rocker arm and surfaced the lifters back in 2011 for =
$276. I don=E2=80=99t recommend resurfacing the lifters though. Better =
to buy new ones such as the ones form Denis Welch.

Happy new years to all of you.

I am of a belief that I need to rebuild my rocker arm assembly. I built =
this engine over 40 years ago and got a rebuilt rocker assembly from a =
local rebuilder in LA.

Lots of blow by and rear air filter gets loaded with oil.

Does anyone have a detailed how to on rebuilding a rocker arm assembly? =
Or can you suggest a rebuilder? The folk slisted in Healey6.com are out =
of business.

Cheers
