Broken Rocker

So I snapped a roller rocker today. Just driving home from town, 35mph, would've been goin faster but I was behind some slow people. Anyway heard what I though was a miss fire, but worse. Tore the drivers vavle cover off and there it was, in half, nice and clean break thank god so no metal chips floating around. Thing that gets me is they only have about 10K on em. Anyone had a problem or no of any problems with the Proform aluminum 1.6 roller rockers? That's what went on me. Now it's either find a replacement which is gonna cost more to ship up here to AK that the rocker will or see if the local NAPA has a full set of good rollers so I can get back on the road faster.

Well I called Profrom this morn, they're sending me a replacement free of charge. That's what I call customer service.

Yep they sound like a good company. In the mean time, could you just bolt on a stock rocker?
