How much oil should flow to rocker arms? Mine seems to pump very little to rocker arms. Cam bushing hole lines perfectly with hole in cam, good oil pressure on gage, runs good, but very little oil coming out external passage to oil rocker arms, govorner, and distributor.

If you have oil coming out of all eight rocker arms, that is good. If not check cork plugs in rocker shaft. MACK

Thanks. Wasn't sure how much flow should come out of tube to rocker arm shaft. Mine doesn't flow near as much as brother-in-law's does but hold about same oil pressure. Guess as long as they're getting some, they're good.

The elbow fitting in the head should have a very small hole in it to restrict the flow to the rockers. They don't need much. When that fitting gets replaced with a standard fitting it will flood the upper end and starve the crank.

If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere.
Real pullers don't have speed limits.
If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY

Ck that elbow Paulb is talking about, make sure there is not a chunk of dirt or metal caught in that small hole.
