engine looks alot better with that set of rocker covers!

I COULD HAVE HAD SIMOS, talked to him sun night, but they didnt come with oil cap or the split breather

caps accidental there?

Ive seen the breakdown in costs on someones thread and the only expensive part seems to be the actual covers.

Looks like in not gonna be able to do friday bud but if you have sat afternoon free Id love to come over then!?!
