| Shazaam, I can tell you from my own experience that Corsa rockers also flake. I usually have to replace at least one rocker at every valve shimming, which is about 500-1000 miles. This is on a factory RS engine running Motul 300V, which some people claim is the best oil for protecting against failures due to the long time before oil reaches the heads. My feeling is that any top spec racing oil is about equal in protecting against this. I agree with you that the rockers are just not up to the job. Haven't tried to get them replated by others such as Megacycle (I've even seen Megacycled rockers flake). Just consider it a consumable which in most cases (not mine unfortunately) Ducati supply at no charge. |
