I have the older Schubecks that came with my engine, I have had the engine for 6 or 7 years and I would guess there is maybe another 10 before that and no problems. I did break a rocker a few years ago, had everything magnafluxed and scoped , all that showed was two more cracked rockers, I cross the stripe at 72-7300 RPM's...
