What rocker arms are these from from ?
Building my rocker assembly from my parts boxes... came across 4 arms that don't appear to be 356 ! No holes for mounting to the stand and circlips at the end, stamping of "218" and all have slight 'twist' in the arm length ...just curious as to what they might be from... similar to 356 but perhaps a special engine ???

Steve, they're for the earlier cast iron rocker stands, not for the aluminum rocker stands in your photo.

Steve,
The rocker assembly on the left side of the photo shows the aluminum rocker stand for the later engines.
Dick
PS: Most later exhaust rockers have a tiny orfice (on its side) for oil squirting in the rocker chamber(s).
Not in the early exhaust rockers even tho the ratio is the same for all. Later intake rocker ratio is 1,3.
