Valve rocker cover.

[Michael Denmark]

I need a valve rocker cover for my 1948 Roadster engine.
Can any help me with this ?

Do any know where to get parts for the 1074 cc engine ?
I have try Arthur Mitchell and Bill Haverly with out any luck.

Any links/info with thanks.

Michael,

Besides Dave Green (NASOC's parts registrar) Bill & Arthur are the ones. I believe that Arthur Mitchell is now the SOC Roadster parts contact. The SOC took over Trevor Cornelius' parts and there must have been a valve cover in there somewhere. Unless, of course, they come as complete engines and they are not wanting to break one up. I would imagine that it you were good with metal fabrication a rudimentary valve cover could be built that would do the part. I can always furnish measurements from my valve cover if you want to take that on.

Not having access to a 1074 motor. I am assuming it is not the same as the 1497 4AD motor? I do have a spare one of the 1497.

Dave,

Unfortunately, the two are not interchangeable. The mighty 1500 engine has a bigger engine & valve cover. Having seen a few photos of Trevor's barns, I would have thought that a 1074 (or even a 10 HP, late 1074 Bantam) valve cover would be kicking around...

I will keep my eyes out...
