im not sure if anyone can help me here, but i went and bought some heads of a mate today for my 355 im building for my hg, and he gave me a set of roller rockers for free, the only problem with them is that on the little wheel bit, most of them have a flat spot, im just wondering if i can just replace the little wheel?

Hi Aiden,

Yella Terra sell roller, pin and circlip kits for their rockers.

Here's a link to their parts list:

I think you're after this:

Not sure if that 's exactly the right part for you, but the rockers will have a part number stamped into them that you can quote to Yella Terra.

Do you have a pic of the top of them?

To my knowlege,Yella Terra dont make their parts in red.....only gold or natural finish.

At best they are Crane or Harland Sharp.

At worst they are pro-comp.

A pic will sort it out.

I can see the scene now...dark garage in suburbia...sounds of distant voices...faint smell of stale beer and Winfield Blue cigarette smoke in the air...guy replacing cheap worn-out Chinese red-coloured roller rockers with shiny new Yella Terra ones (which he wishes he just bought in the first place) puts crappy worn-out rockers into the Yella Terra box for safe-keeping...offers them to his mate who is helping him out...mate just laughs and takes another drag on his smoke...tells him to bash his cheap-s#*t Chinese junk right up his a&$e... Ten years later you come along to buy some heads for your project...

:arrow: :lol:
