Still puzzled by this problem.  Onlyh the #1 cylinder valve rockers are offset
from the valve stems.  Second valve by aboput 2/3, first valve by HALF!.

I visually compared this rocker shaft to another 1500 set up and can't see a
difference.  The front pedestal looks like a mirror image of the rerar one.

I had a suggestion that the pedestals may have come from an older engine - but
my parts books show a totally different style - without the little
'outriggers' to support the end rocker arm.

Any suggestions why, or how to fix this?

Cheers, Fred
