No - I ordered a new genuine o-ring from Rimmer Bros and that's how it ended up. It does look weird.

Getting closer…

Complete rebuilt rocker shaft assemblies for Rocker Arms Unlimited in Redding, CA. Very knowledgeable with Rover rocker assemblies. Under $400 for both.




Itching to install the BBQ cured exhaust manifolds…

Only tasty if it runs as good as it looks!

Looking good! I recommend a good topcoat of either gloss or matte clear to make it easier to wash in the future.
