Title: Yella Terra Vs Thomas Post by: Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius on December 29, 2004, 09:05:36 AM Does anyone know if a Thomas (finned alloy) Rocker Cover will fit a red six with Yella Terra Roller Rockers?
The cheapie chrome unit is a good fit, as soon as I fit up the Thomas unit, the clearances don't seem to be there. Has anyone used the more recent Speco/Thomas, Cain, Kilkenny Castings, Whatever with any success?

I took the Thomas cover into an engineers today for milling. My previous efforts at grinding alloy have not been good.
