Open valve rocker box 34-37 needed
Does anyone have a spare open valve rocker box? In particular the lower casting A5-405 as I appear to have an earlier incarnation of the casting that is machined to take un-flared pushrod tubes; i.e they would just go straight up into the casting, without the flare, rather than sleeving over the suitably cut bosses.

You may well find it easier to obtain some pushrod tubes without the splayed ends instead, or to have some made. I used the early arrangement on my 350 engine for a while but changed to the later type to reduce grease leaks if I remember correctly.

Hi
I have a spare lower casting , however it does not have a casting number and the pushrod tube fittings have a flange to fit inside the pushrod tubes.
Let me know if it is any use, butthe casting is bare , no rocker shafts etc but it does have locating screws for the rocker covers.

Thank you Ian,
Presumably like this casting; actually a 350, but same joint to tubes?
