Post #129. I can think of quite a few deletions manufactures made to parts over the years, either to save money....or they were found to be unnecessary...or both. Deleting the oil spurt hole in the rod/cap intersection is one....
Manufactures also made enhancements to parts over the years as well.
Saying this has something to do with something else is pointless.
It's a pity PRW was not interested in getting one of the rockers back just to have a look and maybe check the material used in it..Just to rule that possibility out.
