As the Ef is getting towards 300,000kms:( i was wondering are there any components in the rocker assembly that get worn out and need replacing beside the lifters? I've got a reco head and wanted to know if there would be a benefit in changing the whole rocker rack or not. If it would be benificial where is the place to get em, wreckers or get it recoed?
Cheers. |

The rockers can wear a groove into the shaft they pivot on. If its not ticking its fine. If your getting a ticking sound then look into it otherwise dont worry.

The roller rockers in the 6's are a DAMN good piece of gear. They will last 300 times longer than any flat tappet design. If its quiet, leave it.
