I personally have it done. And it makes a lot of sence. Most if not all of the other people that I personally know with xe's have done it too.

Erm tbh I don't think you can get easier than that guide mate. My rocker cover gasket needed changing anyway so thought I might aswell just do it why I'm there

all it does it help the top end breath, the top end cant breath on a redtop, so it just helps, i dont think it makes much of a difference on an xe tbh.

Yeah if your engine breathers heavy it may help. I've never bothered before with it.
