Yikes, a concrete kilo marker?
Sorry to hear.

I don't know if they'll fit.

....Calling ducman851, please go to the white courtesy phone.....

Let me compare the rockers I have and Ill get back to you tomorrow, but from what Ive heard but not confirmed. They are supposed top be different on the front head.

 

[s4grrr]

the front head is definitely different, they call it a drop head as the front exhaust cam is moved forward and down to increase clearance for the front wheel. i'm reasonably sure that the rockers are all the same however, but ducman851's check will say for sure.
cheers.

Not super relevant, but *both* heads on an S4 have the low exhaust cams.
