Hi, Could anyone tell me where I can get a set of rockers for a 996 and all the associated gaskets and o rings to complete the job? as mine have flaked, I'm probably going to need a shim kit as well. Any pointers in the right direction would be appreciated. Also would it hurt if I left the flaking rockers as they are? Thanks Matt
Leaving the flaking rockers will damage your cams resulting in more expense, ducati rockers are aprox £125 each so if you have a few that need replacing it might be worth contacting Newman Engineering, they can replate ( they weld a harder surface and re-grind ) them at a cost of aprox £35 each.

I thought that I would need to replace them (just hoping I wouldn't have to) I am going to pull the cams later and see how many are damaged, but with the amount of flaking in the oil it looks like a few have gone. Thanks for the reply. I dont suppose you have a contact number for newman engineering?
I bought 2 off a member on here back in November for a very reasonable price. Pull them out and see which ones and how many you need and somebody may have some.
Newman cams thats a contact for the records, rocker refacing for £35, any one using their rockers and how do they last compared to Ducati ones? I dont currently need any fingers crossed as all fine last year when belts and shims serviced, all due again next year or so though.:grimacing:
