Extra holes
By James Dodson - 07/19/2002 4:58:25 PM; IP 152.163.189.232
The HS shafts have the extra holes as a part of the Harlan-Sharp's long tradition of trying to think of everything. There is a hole on top and bottom to avoid them accidentally getting installed upside down. this used to happen on occasion so HS did that so you wouldn't have to keep that in mind while you were assembling the rocker shaft assemblies.
A lot of the FE smoking problems have to do with two things. One, using Fel Pro gaskets on the intake. They are not very good and alow the motor to suck oil from the valley into the intake runners. Two, the standard valve guide seals are not good enough. I am currently having this problem with the intake gasket issue. My intake might be warped or previously milled so when I get to the bottom of my oil drinking problem I will post my findings. I hope this helped.
