Subject: [Healeys] rocker shaft assembly

I purcased a replacement rocker shaft assembly for my BJ8 due a bit lower
than
normal oil pressure, oil in the rear air cleaner and squirting up from a
couple of the rocker arms. What is the suggested torque for the rocker arm
nuts? I know to be careful about applying too much torque to the oil supply
line. Can I re-use the copper washers on either side of the banjo fitting,
or
do I need to get new ones?

Thanks!
David Z.
