Title: Wtd Ali rocker covers for V6 Elite
Post by: Father_of_four on 17 July 2012, 11:47:59

Hi All

I am wanting to get hold of a pair of Ali Rocker covers for my V6 Elite to put an end to the oil leak fom the gasket area once and for all. Has any of you got any info on where to look ? I have replaced bothe gaskets with new and have still got the problem. A good friend recommended getting hold of the Ali covers.

Look forward to any help !!!

Best regards

craig
