If there's another set, I have a friend with a Griff who's very keen.

The Aussie has made contact and he hopes to make contact with his yella terra agent this week I have asked for a price for 3 sets and also 5 sets.

Hope to have some firm prices shortly.

the aussie link is a no-no 2 month lead time and 1000 Aus Dollers  :o :o :o.

So plan 2.

My mate Marc imports brake calipers from America and has an import licence with customs and revenue anyone want to email a prefered us supplier and ask for costs for 3 to 5 sets ?

No idea if these would fit, but it seems the RV8 was used in the Triumph TR8 (a US only model)

What do you think?  Worth a phone call to the States?

Roller Rocker Arms  - TR8/Rover V8 (also GM version).  Aluminum rocker arm with roller tip and force feed oiling to tip and pushrod.  Oilite bronze bushed so no need for special rocker shaft

That's the one.  It sounds suspiciously like the YT6000 Yella Terras.

it does sound that way, but no harm in asking :-)

Not managed to follow this up yet.  But given the current exchange rate, I'll do it ASAP!
