pivot ***** on magnum rockers?

I've got the comp cam magnum rockers but can't figure out which way the pivot ball sits. The instructions say flat side up but both sides are flat. Any ideas?

Re: pivot ***** on magnum rockers?

The ball should be rounded on one side, the round part goes down in the rocker..

Look at this picture


All of those ***** are sitting round side up... If installed what you see facing up in pic you would turn over and place down agaist rocker body..

Here, even better pic..


See the 2 lock *****.. The one on the left is flat side up (and how it should be installed), the one on the right is round side up.
