273 rocker shafts install

[b67cuda]

I could really use someones expertise with rocker shaft intallation on my 67 273 engine. I am trying to install my rockers onto the shafts, then the shafts onto the heads.
The FSM says " Install rocker arm and shaft assemblies with notch pointing to cenrerline of engine and tword front of engine on left bank and to rear of engine on right bank " first off :
1. I assume right and left is from sitting in the drivers seat ??

Then:
2. should the notch be at the top or bottom of the shaft ??

I guess If I knew the answer to these questions I can figure out the rest - does anybody know this info or where I can find it.
Thanks Alot, Bill

.1 yes
#2 bottom or inboard, notch towards centerline
and make sure the rocker tips(intake and exhaust) are aligned with the valve tips

The notch is at the bottom of the shaft. On the drivers side it is pointing towards the radiator. On the passenger side, towards the firewall.

They way I remember it is, if I am standing by the fender looking at the engine, the slot is ALWAYS on my left.8)
