Do you think that blonde girl could get Rockouts on QVC?

You could tell her you'd give her a product to tighten her hole....

Just got back from a short test ride so I could hear if John's Rock Outs have quieted down the tic-tic-tic in the rocker arms. In short, they worked exactly as advertised!
I did the rear cylinder first and the hardest part was getting the left rear rocker box bolt out. Took out the assembly, replaced the o-ring so thoughtfully provided by John and cleaned all the old gasket material in prep for the new ones. I also changed the little breather valve and sponge which were near crystallized.
As the instructions said they only go in one way and I slid them in as far as they would go. I had made sure that the notch on the rocker shaft was centered and give them a little kiss with my ball peen to seat them. Stuck the bolt through, put the nut and washer on and ran them right into the hole. I didn't have any witness marks on any of my bolts but I did have some massive ticking at idle up through 1200-1800 RPM. I don't have it any more. Thanks John for an outstanding fix!

Just takes a screw to insert the bushing into the hole.

Evening Woods. Soon to hit the shower and the wrack.
I promised a couple pics from the wedding. These are pretty much all I have until the real photographer's stuff gets here.
Didn't know the brides maids, but from right to left, my oldest son, then the best man a friend of the family since he was a baby. And then the groom, son number two Jon and the bride Caitlin.

I still have some ticking but it's at off idle. I think is side shift of my rocker arm shafts. 124's are known to be a tad noisy. No rattle around 2400 that was there before. One of the best mods for the money!
