Re: Rocker cover NG 350 1936
Do you mean rocker cover? The 1936 should have 'open' valves with a single rocker box split horizontally enclosing the rocker gear with 2 sheet metal dome cover over the upper ends of the valves. From 1938 there are 2 rocker boxes, an exhaust at the front and an inlet at the rear. No similarity between the 1933-37 version and 1938-58 one. The earlier one had different boxes for the 250/350 and the 500. Have a look in a parts book and see if you can see the parts you need.

I am having a conversation with Matthew Gellert is Oz about making these. Awkward little suckers but he says he has a way. Not seen him on the forum so I will ask him about selling in the wider world and let you know.

Just checked with him and it is the inner covers 871-34, not the caps that he is making. Sorry to get your hopes up.

As an act of marque revenge the Valve spring enclosing caps 871-34 (571-34) can be made from ready chromed BSA bantam plunger shrouds...
