Also, the heads are not sided so I'm confused.
Should there be LH and RH rockers on the same shaft?

Perhaps it's for assembly purposes assuming you build a right hand and left hand one rather than 2 lefts and turn one round

Is there any noticeable difference with side by side comparison?

The oem shaft has a notch in one end to mark the oilways, it goes at the front on the left hand and to the rear on the right hand.
The heads can go on either side so i think it's rubbish.. the rocker can only go on one way otherwise the push rod would be pushing on the valve side of the rocker

I have seen rockers that have an offset on the actual arm so it cranks over to the top of the valve and you use one left and one right for each cylinder, i wonder if thats what they mean.

Not great but here's a pic, the oil hole is on the other edge on the other 'side' rockers

Been faffing about the last couple of days trying to fit new seals and bearings to the front hubs on Buttercup. Only 3/4 way through one side at the moment cos I have lost confidence in what I am doing regarding fitting the new seals.
I was so chuffed that everything came apart, no seized bolts, that I forgot to take notes on seal depths as I took them out. Now have created a new thread asking for help.
Bummer it's an age thing.

Looked sunny but it was cold. Found my (main) issue, pulled the intercooler out with the hoses still on can clearly see flaps when looking down them suprised it handled motorways at all. Intercooler was slightly blocked at one end on the bottom but nowhere near like the last time not particularly bad. In the shed soaking for tonight. My god I have to sort out in there! Or start clearing up by putting all the crap together see how many junk Landys I’ve got

I bit the bullet last year ... And built another shed.
