I'm looking for some input concerning the rocker arm modifications Gord McMillan did the article about. It was about pressurizing the rocker shafts by plugging the overflow pipes with a metered orifice.  He then advised drilling additional holes in the shafts.

Would one do this in addition to cutting the groove in the camshaft? Instead of cutting the camshaft groove? Or is it even necessary if you have a properly grooved cam with hard cam bearings?

Thoughts,comments, observations???????????

Thanks

    I'm just trying to gather all the information I can on the various options to keep those rockerarms properly lubed and functioning.

    I remember all too well the leaky oil line to the valve covers on the old 55 4 dr I drove in high school. But then we bought a very clean used 61 Ford 2dr sedan with a 292 sporting a 4 bbl and 3 on the tree with a (I believe) synchro first gear.  I was livin' large!!

    Thanks
