A boys first broken pushrod.... LOL

the guy thats there now, says the shaft upside down doesnt matter on this style rocker, only the stamped steel rocker.??

Show him the photos I posted earlier which are right out of a Mopar shop manual. Not a Haynes, Chiltons, or Motors----a MOPAR shop manual

If it didn't matter, Ma would not have specified. In the correct position, the oil holes in the shaft are pointed "back" towards the ball ends of the rockers, which have holes through the rockers.
